Many competing 100-W amps don't cover 160-6 meters, or don't make it

awful). None of them offer a companion internal ATU.

Hi,
A very nice looking amp. A few questions:
I assume from the detail description that the KXPA100 face plate
sans the built in ATU would have just the upper row of lights, Power
out, ATT, TX, ON .... and the OFF/ON slide switch.
I assume that the sans built in ATU version would automatically
bypass the amp when in the OFF position.
I also assume that the attenuation, ATT light is activated
automatically as is the band selection.
At what power level will the automatically switched ATT kick in?
At the moment my favorite antenna tuner (manual) is the ezee match
which is very easy to tune and has 2 separate antenna
inputs. Physically the KXPA100 would fit very nicely on top of the
AT case (exactly 6 in wide and 12 in deep).
I assume, that should I wish to add the built in ATU in the future
that it would include a new faceplate with the added lights and buttons.
Thanks

Jim, VE3CI
