I couldn’t wait. I had to have “Elecraft K4” on my desk.
So I had a mouse pad made with the cover photo from the K4 Brochure. Not nearly the satisfaction that I’ll have at some distant point in the future when a real K4 graces my desk and ham shack, but, at least for now, I can say that I am among the first to have “Elecraft K4” on my desk. 73 Hoop.

A decent "high res" pic of the K4 is available in the revolving banner of
the Elecraft home page. When that pic is on display you can right click it and select "save image as" to download a copy to your pc. Brian On Thu, May 30, 2019 at 9:51 PM James F.

Thanks for posting that, wunder.
It was bound to happen... a radio whose font size will *force* me to wear my glasses while operating it. >>sigh<<. Here's a reeeeeally dumb question: Is the Ethernet bi-directional? We know that the radio can be talked to (controlled) by some external thing. But can it talk to the outside world, using its screen and mouse? Can it initiate communications with some external thing? How long does it take to boot when you turn it on? Is it like the old days when we had to wait for filaments to heat?

Al, the ethernet port is, as you say, bi-directional. The K4 can
communicate with other K4's to control them, or it can be the radio under external control by either another K4 or an app on an iPad or a PC. As far as boot time duration I don't have a real answer for that yet. Quicker than a tube rig is a pretty safe bet. ;). Brian.

Quantitative: 5 to 10 seconds (best estimate).
Qualitative: Way faster than Windows. :) Wayne > On May 31, 2019, at 12:04 PM, Brian Broggie <[hidden email]> wrote: > > Al, the ethernet port is, as you say, bi-directional.

Great Image, Walter, et al. I processed it a bit for clarity and placed it at the top of my Ham Radio Gallery… link is below. Click on the image for a full screen view.

Compared with the 15 seconds it takes for the SVGA monitor to
show the tuned frequency when I boot my K3. Sounds good to me. 73 Bill AE6JV On 5/31/19 at 1:22 PM, [hidden email] (Wayne Burdick) wrote: >Quantitative: 5 to 10 seconds (best estimate). > >Qualitative: Way faster than Windows. > >:) > >Wayne > > >>On May 31, 2019, at 12:04 PM, Brian Broggie <[hidden email]> wrote: >> >>Al, the ethernet port is, as you say, bi-directional.
