Wayne, HAVE a great Thanksgiving...
I wasn't "knocking" the K4 (I have one on order)...
I would like to see my KX3/PX3 etc. utilities for my laptop (Linux Mint)
easier to load.
But, I do need to sit down and figure out how to load them as it is more
than a double-click.
I may not have been clear.
I am tired of W10...
I do like the idea of initialization files for different usage (contest,
DX, casual), if different.
One click to re-set all the settings, although I always just set the KX3
and operated...
Although, it would be nice to be able to save all the settings (mike,
AF, Power, etc) for my FT8 stuff and a different set of settings for SSB...
"Although" pen-paper works, too.

No K4 user will ever have to use -- or even see -- a Linux command. The
embedded computer is there to make things simpler, and the operating system
will not be something you need to be conscious of. That includes software
updates.
Any internal "apps" (advanced software functions) will be 100% vetted by
Elecraft and a team of intrepid pre-testers before it appears in a software update
package. You'll know you have a new function available when it appears on a switch
selection or in the menu; you won't have to explicitly install it.
Think of the K4 as a Hybrid SDR for Non-Nerds (tm). You can stay focused on
exploring the bands, working DX, and experimenting with new modes.

Yes, that would be nice...
What I want to see (for ALL) utilities is the ability to load into Linux
without having to compile the utility (I understand .deb files)
Many Linux users are NOT geeks. I just wanted to get away from W10...
OR have good directions on how to load into the most popular distributions like
Mint.
xsjt-x loads very easily; .deb files load even on a Raspberry Pi - Elecraft
could too.
I like the KX3/PX3/amp utility but the K3s/K4 "machine" is more sophisticated and NEEDS a
more advanced utility, being able to save "setup" init files.
It would be a nice addition for the KX line too.

This would be a nice feature, but, I would rather have the ability to save mic
settings like which port, gain, compression, bias and free response settings.
At least three or four (or more) mic profiles would be mice.

Dear OMs and YLs,
Even if this could be done in the K4 Utility it would be useful. This
facility might even be better in the Utility if this helped to keep the
radio user friendly. Boy, this list goes on and on but it is good just the
same. We are all writing our letters to Santa.

Subject: [Elecraft] K4: savable profiles?
Will the K4 have the ability to save (and then select from) various
"profiles" so that a user can go from, say, 20m 100-watt CW to 80m 10-watt
FT8 with all the saved settings (power, mode, bandwidth, audio in/out
levels) taking effect simply by selecting the chosen profile?
Tnx/73,
