As the price goes up, the market gets infinitely smaller. And quantity
makes for profit. I would prefer to build one million $1.00 widgets as
opposed to one $1,000,000 widget.

Would you be buyers at $10,000, $12,000, $14,000?
People that would buy right now, represent a very small market segment and
Elecraft has already done their study on market segments and high power
amplifiers.
It is simple math........

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Love me K3 line
I would buy one right now.
500 is great for convenience but full legal limit would be my ultimate goal.
Some time a little extra is all you need lol and I run QRP most the time.

…a KPA1500 is something I would buy in a heartbeat (suppose I would need a
KAT1500 to go with it).

True, and I notice it here when I get beat by other W6s with similar
stations other than the amp. I live with it given the incredible
integration of the KPA500: I have the amps in a closet and never touch
them. They just work.
My hope is that Elecraft becomes a giant corporation with enough R&D
capital to bring back the KPA1500! Come on guys, buy more stuff!!

3 holer amp and purchased the KPA 500 I was somewhat concerned about the
pwr output difference. However I have worked probably 15 ATNOs since the
switch and have NOT missed working any station that I have wanted to
work.
The P3 w/SVGA added is a great tool, particulary on CW, looking for a
hole
to call in when the DX is listening 5 to 20 Kcs up...
