No need to speculate. There is no such project underway at Elecraft.
Direct RF-sampling receivers, for all their technology, still lag well
behind the K3 in blocking dynamic range, and probably will continue to
for years to come. We're quite happy with our superhet architecture.
Also, any advancement we make to the K3 will be retrofittable to
existing K3s, so your investment is safe.

Given the advances in direct RF sampled SDRs (currently available
QS1R, soon to be released Flex-6000, etc.), Elecraft must be quietly
working on on an RF sampled K4 SDR. Maybe we will see an anouncement
in May at Dayton? I am wondering if I should take the leap with the
Flex or wait for Elecraft? I suspect that Elecraft will provide a
higher value solution. Any speculation on this point by Elecraft fans?
Thanks,
