I am sure the KPA 500 will be an outstanding amplifier however, there is an existing alternative with advantages (besides 1kw) over the KPA 500. Namely a built in antenna tuner in addition to power supply. The spec says it tunes 3:1 but mine will match 5.5:1 automatically and close to 10:1 manual mode. Very compact (W 11.02", H 5.51", D 12.60") see all the specs http://www.steppir.com/SteppirSPE.html
However, the 1K-FA is not suitable for outdoor application.
