The feedback here has been a great help.  And input from the list
members who also operate with similar winter conditions to ours is very
helpful.

Before I spend any money on something new I must ask.  Does Elecraft
have anything on the drawing board that will work with non-Elecraft
radios and that could be installed remotely?

I would have considered using the KAT-100 if it could have been used
with my non-Elecraft radios, some of which exceed the power limits of
the T-1
