Good summary, Jeff.

I'd like to also emphasize that there are a good number of us out here with
deed restriction/covenant situations that have to use a single HF antenna
(175' inverted "L" here) with an external, outdoor tuner. We are all waiting
for an "external" option or version of the KAT-500.

In my case, I currently use the SGC-230 which limits me to about 60 watts
cw, and 200 watts SSB.  There's no reason for me to purchase the KPA-500
until I can replace the low power external tuner with something capable of
500+ watts.

I'll continue to patiently wait.  My KX-1, K3, and P3 are wonderful.  I'm
sure the KAT-500 will also be worth the wait.
