[Elecraft] For those at Dayton (KAT500)

[Bob]

I've never owned a MFJ tuner capable of handling its "rated" power for
anything over a 1.5 SWR (and then you get into arguments about PEP vs CW vs
Continuous Carrier).  They all burn out with even a slight mismatch.  Since
I'm not trying to tune a dummy load, I'll go with something that can handle
500 watts full carrier into a bad mismatch.  That's the reason I bought a
manual Palstar tuner for use with my KPA500 -- and it has served me well,
but is a manual tuner.

I have faith that Elecraft will meet the performance criteria.  I have zero
faith, based on long bitter experience, that MFJ can.
