Joel, The K4 will receive on all LF and MF bands down to 100 kHz. In TX mode, it can put out a few dBm at the XVTR OUT jack for use with external low-band transverters.
Since the K4 also has provisions for an *internal* transverter, we could in theory offer one in for these bands. Power output could be as much as 10 or 15 W. This is all speculative, though, as the plan has been to cover one or two VHF/UHF bands with the internal transverter module. 73, Wayne N6KR > On Sep 19, 2019, at 11:10 AM, Joel Hallas <jrhal...@optonline.net> wrote: > > I have been very impressed with the architecture and features of the K4, as > announced.
