Elecraft Remote Tuner?

[Richard Thorne-4]

How about a remote tuner option?

Maybe the KAT-500 repackaged so the tuner can be installed at the feed
point.  Have voltage and control signals sent down the coax vs a
separate control line?

As a 2nd option a beefed up remote tuner to handle the KPA-1500?

I know there's been talk of a K4 or KX4 which would be nice, but a
remote tuner would probably fit a lot of need.  If I have an antenna
with a an swr higher than 3:1, and a tuner is required, it's better off
at the antenna than in the shack.

I too would be interested in a remote tuner from Elecraft that would support either at the 500 or 1500 watt level.
