[Elecraft] twin KPA500 amplifiers

[Steve Jackson]

The discussion about a 'KPA1500' made me think about putting two of the
KPA500 in parallel.

Using a gizmo like this one:

or the equivalent circuitry, packaged and cabled accordingly, and maybe
wire-AND-ing (or with diodes) the key lines of the two amps, them letting
them auto-band-switch based on the initial signal, doing so would yield a
~1200W Elecraft amplifier.

Is this an awful idea? (Ignore the cost for this exercise.)   If so, why?
