Thanks for the great reviews on ehams for my KPA500 Digital Display Unit.
"The DDU is what the display on my KPA500 should be. It sits under a computer monitor where it effectively displays the current telemetry of the amp. It is a great accessory that keeps me from having to reach over and press buttons on the amp to see what is going on. The DDU makes for more effective operations."
"Recently stumbled upon this item. It sounded just like what I wanted. It eliminates having to press the various buttons on the KPA500 to see the different readings. With this little box everything you need to know is right there at one time. It's bright and easily readable, yet it's small and takes up very little room.
Keith sent it within two days and I had it unboxed, connected and working in about 20 minutes.
This is definitely one of the more useful side items I'll be using in the shack."
"This unit is terrific and an excellent value for the money. Showing the 7 parameters and I like seeing all of the amplifier's vital readings. It looks good and works great. The unit arrived quickly via USPS and was packed extremely well. Very happy with this unit! Thank you, Keith."
