Elecraft K4 question

[Wayne Suite]

Does the K4 cover the 2200m and 630m ham bands, like the flex radios do?

Also when are the group 3 orders shipping?

Thanks,
Kd5spx

The K4 receives on these bands. Transmit output can be taken from the XVTR OUT jack, and is about +10 dBm.

Does the K4 do temp compensation like the K3 does, in very small steps?
If so, is the step size the same as the K3?

I used to do dopplergrams using my old 756 PRO III, but with the K3 the
frequency corrections are in steps and mess up the dopplergrams...

After a brief warmup, the K4's short-term reference lock deviation is approximately +/- 0.1 to 0.2 Hz at an operating frequency of 14 MHz. It scales linearly with frequency. This is roughly 5x tighter than the equivalent spec for the K3, so I'm guessing you wouldn't see it in a dopplergram. That said, we haven't tested it that way yet.
