My KPA500 seems horribly inefficient when compared to my TS-590S running a similar power output. The data for the heating test showed a PA efficiency of 23%, far short of the "approximately 50%" stated in the specification.
That's perfectly normal at that low power output. The 50% spec is at full output. If you ran your TS-590S at 20 W output, you would probably see about the same low efficiency.
