Gene,
I would believe the KPA500 will work quite nicely for you. Here is an
Excerpt from the manual's Introduction section:
"The KPA500 can be used with nearly any transceiver, thanks to its
instantaneous RF-based band switching, advanced protection circuitry,
adjustable ALC, and extensive parametric monitoring. It also has inputs
that allow direct band switching from many popular transceivers. T/R is
completely noise-free thanks to the use of PIN-diode switching."
There is an optional RS232 (XCVR) jack to connnect the KPA500 to a
Kenwood transceiver.
Download the manual from the Elecraft website and read the entire
section and setup information an decide for yourself.
73,

I called Elecraft Technical support and could not get a definitive answer if the Elecraft KPA500 amp will work for this purpose. The extremely pleasant tech support agent suggested I sign up for this email list. So here I am. I am ready to buy an amp and would appreciate anyone 's suggestions and assistance.
