Regarding K4 Updates:
Chuck KE9UW has a good idea. What he is really suggesting is that the K4 be
remotely operated by an iPad with the K4 control panel replicated on the touch
screen. We know that Flex Radio has this with the 6400/6600 series. Will this
be available with the K4?

I have seen the same on my KX2, while dialing it seems to freeze at
times for a second or so at a time. Even after being on only a few
