I would like


   - Attractive Price Point
   - 220VAC (given)
   - 1 antenna port
   - full RS232 or TPC/IP remote control
   - Good self protection due to antenna issues.
   - No tuner
   - No multiple antenna ports
   - Good metering for power, current, temp, etc...

In other words, make a great amp, by simple and bullet proof.  Leave the
antenna switching, tuners, etc to other devices.

Keep the price down.  By doing this, it makes it simple to support as a
company and easy to build.

You'll sell more by doing this.
