Re: [Elecraft] K4 specs

2021-01-17 Thread Wayne Burdick
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

[Elecraft] K4 specs

2021-01-17 Thread BRUCE WW8II
When is Elecraft going to publish some preliminary specs like sensitivity,
and noise floor?? I really want a new radio (K4D) but I will not lay my
cash out blindly. I love my fully loaded with every option,  K3s and I love
my back-up K3 and my P3/VGA  and my KPA500 & KAT500 and my KPA1500. But I
need real info.. I do not want to be like my good friends that recently
bought from other radio companies that came out with a product that had all
kinds of great reviews, then one of them brought his new radio over to my
QTH so we could  compare to my K3s,  and then he went home a very unhappy
camper.. I do not want to be unhappy when compared to my present set-up.
At least tell me am I going to see an improvement over my present set-up??
Things like sensitivity, noise floor,  noise blanker and noise reduction
are biggies for me.  I am not a contester,  I am into weak signals in the
daylight hours,  on 160 and 80 meters.
OK  Just saying I want a new and better radio if there is one.. and maybe
this subject has already been covered and I missed it.
Yes I understand this virus thing has all of us a bit in the ANXIOUS mode.

I still like knobs on my radio!!

Stay safe
