Wayne, Thank you for this update. I am eagerly awaiting information on the K4 kits and when they will be available (I know, not for a while yet ;-)). My only regret with my K3, s/n 261, is that I bought it, and its accompanying P3, used. Consequently, I didn't get the joy of building them

That was already demonstrated by Elecraft in what I believe was their first video of the K4 in action at one of the trade shows. I'm sure you can still find it on YouTube somewhere. Dave   AB7E On 4/19/2020 1:10 PM, hawley, charles j jr wrote: When I read about the touch controls, I
