Regardless of FCC requirements, it is not feasible or desirable to
modify the KPA500 for lower power drive with a 10W exciter.
Any modification of the input network to the KPA500 will seriously
degrade the input SWR to the amplifier and also will put the KPA500
transistors at a strong risk of destruction from accidental over drive.
Our protection circuitry and firmware are tightly integrated to provide
a very reliable bullet-proof design.
