Gerald,

SO2R done correctly requires extensive path shielding, switching components, 
and control circuitry. Adding these would increase the size and cost of the 
KPA1500 for all customers, while only a small percentage would make use of 
them. So we feel that an external controller providing SO2R or other 
specialized switching would be more appropriate. 

KPA1500 firmware will be updated to fully support such products as we identify 
them. We oversized the microcontroller memory by a factor of about 8 to allow 
for such expansion. In addition to SO2R, there may be other gear such as 
antenna switches that we can directly control from the amp’s antenna and ATU 
switches, and status can be shown on the 32-character LCD.

73,
Wayne
