As you noted, you will need two Unifying receivers - one for the K4 and the other for the PC. Be sure to pair both devices (mouse and keyboard) with both receivers - it is probably best to have channel one set to one receiver, and channel two to the other on both keyboard and mouse. After that

No difference between using the K3 and K4. I use the same interconnection cable that I used for the K3. The K4 shows the power level against the power control knob as appropriate when you go from standby to operate. Power setting/control with the K4 and KPA500 is well controlled. 73 Dave K4D
