I also am interested in having I/Q output in a K4, or as a mod for a K3S/P3.
I currently use a separate receiver, SDR I/Q, fed from the receiving antenna connection on a K3 with a preamp to account for signal losses. I used this arrangement from American Samoa as single person DX/Vacation expedition. Used in conjunction with CW Simmer, it was very useful in handling CW pileups. I could easily pick out calling stations that were not trying to move to where I had last responded to a call, which then caused a pileup around that frequency rather than spreading them out over several kilohertz. I was able to pick out stations over the full spread each time.
I would like to have the same capability without the need for a separate SDR receiver and without taking away the separate receiving antenna.

Stan Fraley, WS5K
