*DO NOT* try running
PSK, MFSK, etc. modes at 600W average power from a KPA-500 as you

Recent measurements I've done of a K3 driving a KPA500 both with pink
noise on USB and keyed CW show that not to be the case. Yes, bandwidth
increases a few dB from 400W to 600W, but I would NOT call it serious.
This is preliminary work and a preliminary report. At its current stage,
it's a proof of concept.As I have time (and the radios to test), I plan
to look at lot of others. I've just lined up a couple in the FT1000MP
family.
