[Elecraft] KX3 and KPA500 ... full power out?

Hi - I was wondering if there were any plans for what I'll call a "KX3
interface/adapter" to the KPA500 so that it could run at full rated output
power?

I know one can attach a number of "automatic" amps that get you up to 30w,
but not with the sort of complete integration as the K3 and KPA500.
Also, the connections seem a bit cumbersome to have the extra
/non-integrated amp. Or, is the filtering required too hard given the boost
level?

Ok, I'm sure someone will say the KXPA100 is the "adapter", but I still
believe there is some work to get the KPA500 working like it was part of
the KX3.
Maybe a 30w mod for the kx3 coming?

Thanks, Terry, NS6D
