Hi Bruce, The latest edition of the "Introduction to the Elecraft K4" manual includes preliminary specifications. Unfortunately the version that's at the manual link right now is an older one. That will be corrected by tomorrow, and you can download it.
I could send you the document directly, if you'd like. It's too big to post to a list. Check out page 40. Some specs are different from the K3; the radios have two entirely different architectures. The K4 adds a large color screen/panadapter, external monitor/keyboard/mouse support, ethernet connectivity, more digital I/O, more receive antenna selections, dual receive standard, and virtually unlimited future expansion capability. 73, Wayne N6KR > On Jan 17, 2021, at 6:18 PM, BRUCE WW8II <wa8...@gmail.com> wrote: > > When is Elecraft going to publish some preliminary specs like sensitivity, > and noise floor??
