I use the KPA1500 on 60M, at ~3 watts from the K4 to get the legal 100 W output

I do the same, Rick, except that I'm driving an 80M dipole with
considerable feedline loss, so I run about 150W out of the amp. Works
great, by the way.
I did the same with my KPA500 during 100W contests, so that I could run
the K3 at lower power. That both reduces distortion and load on the
100Ah LiFePO4 battery that runs the two radios on my operating desk.
