When did you see and twist this unit?  The KPA500 only began 
pre-production a month ago. Anything you might have seen at a hamfest 
was an engineering  prototype, and being shown for display purposes. As 
any EE who has worked in design labs knows,  the construction of 
prototypes is often quite different from a product that is in production.

Now, I haven't opened up a KPA500 and looked at it, nor have I opened up 
an Orion or Orion II.
