Having a KPA500 and been a potential customer for the KAT500 I have been watching reports about the KAT500 operation, unless I misunderstand it seems the KAT500 only has band information available to it so it needs a sniff of RF to make band segment adjustments. I think it can already store settings for band segments from previous training but without the frequency information prior to been sent RF it is unable to make the most efficient use of it. I'm no EE so I do not know what it would take to implement this, how much in extra hardware and software design but in my opinion if the KAT500 was passed the operating frequency information from the transceiver instead of just band information that would elevate it from a good tuner to a great tuner.
