At Ham-Com in July David Shoaf gave a very interesting presentation that 
included a section on how the KPA1500 is tested and burned in. Both the 
power supplies are burned in and then the assembled amplifiers are 
burned in. Given the power levels involved and the amazingly 
comprehensive burn in process I don't see any way a kit-built unit could 
be practical that would ensure meeting the specs. If and when I get mine 
I'll opt for a factory-built version even if a kit is available.
