I forgot that the KPA500 and K3s are the same size. Point remains
KPA1500AT won't fit in the KPA500/K3s box.

I hate to interrupt the group fantasy but,
No way a "1500W key down forever any mode" solid state amp is going to
be quiet, affordable, or fit in the KPA500 box, much less the K3s
(that was funny). Add an internal tuner capable of "1500W key down
forever any mode" and the box gets bigger, the fans get louder, and
the price goes up. If you're planning on running this on 120V...just
stop.
A power supply capable of "1500W key down forever any mode", 50V stiff
@ 80 amps, isn't going to be light, quiet, and not be a switcher (that
was funny too).
Remember, the prime directive is 160-6m "1500 W key down forever any
mode". There isn't an SSPA for sale in the amateur market that can do
that. So...you're paying $8K right now to get "close" (close is
relative). If Elecraft can do it for 20% more good on 'em. Then you
get to decide good down payment on a new car, or KPA1500.
