Michael, I have the KPA500 and the KAT500 but use them with an Icom IC-7610. The amp and tuner are a great combination.
Regarding the mic and varying power, you need to maintain a consistent distance from the mic and a consistent audio level when speaking into the mic or your power will drop off. Watch the mic gain setting, you don’t want it so sensitive that the mic picks up room noise.
