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.
