[Elecraft] KAT500 a good tuner or great tuner

[Jim Brown]

Another point.  Elecraft designed the KAT500 so that can be used with 
almost any rig and almost any good power amp.  Part of that design is 
determining the operating frequency by sensing RF and counting the 
frequency.  Why is this important?  Because it increases (potentially by 
a lot) the number of customers, which in turn builds sales volume, which 
in turn keeps the price down.  Thank you, Eric, for another very smart 
marketing move.
