I don't have any personal interest, but I have considered building
one for a friend. PSK31 would certainly be doable on the K1 with the I0CG
mods.
For a while, I was considering building a swappable replacement head
for the K1 that turned it into a dedicated RTTY rig complete with
scrolling display and a mini-din keyboard jack :). RTTY is pretty easy to
pull off given the K1 design. Alas, a PSK31 head would be non-trivial.
Come to think of it, you could lose the keyboard and "type" the characters
just as easily via the cw key :).

I'm curious how many readers on this list have done the I0CG SSB mod to their
K1's and what the consensus is about it? I'm especially interested in anyone
using it for digital modes (i.e. PSK31) The information I can find about the
mod seems to end in the Summer 2003.
Thanks,

Not REALLY being interested in SSB, I was fascinated by the I0CG conversion
for the K1, but only for PSK. As far as a "new" rig from Elecraft, I'd be
more
interested in one similar to the K1, but with CW and PSK capabilities.
"Filter" wise, possibly a frequency agile receiver filter bandpass
bandwidth (1.5 khz-.05 khz) and bandpass center frequency variable
over whatever the audio range would be (500-2500 Hz?)
{pipe dreams?}
