Can auto tune amps tune fast enough between band A and B? My experience with 
Acom 2000 is that while auto tuning is fast, it is not fast enough to be 
alternating CQ on two different bands.

On the other hand, solid state amps use banks of low pass filters on the 
output, allowing them to switch bands as rapidly as the relays can switch; I 
can imagine running on two bands with this arrangement.
