K-4 capabilities
Locked
 
|
As we all await the arrival of the K-4, I'm wondering if the radio will
"remember" all of the settings per band. Specifically, I use different RF settings per band and have to remember to reset the RF as I go from 160 to 20, for example. Will these settings and AF gain, etc be recalled per band? Wayne, et al, tell us more about what you've been doing on the software design side of the K-4 while "on vacation" at home? 73, Art KZ5D ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [hidden email] |

Wayne,
In these times of lockdown some of us are buoyed up with the prospect of the new K4. Well some of the fortunate who are waiting for early delivery. It is a bit like waiting for Santa as a kid. When a toy catalogue came in the door I devoured it; well maybe these catalogues are a thing of the past. Nonetheless, anything you can tell us about this radio just gives us something to look forward to. I see from the back of QST that the Kenwood TS 890S has some pretty nice features and impressive specifications. It will be most interesting to see how the K4 stacks up. Will Porsche surpass Jaguar again and claim pole position? The K4 is a big hope for the future. Tell us what you can, we need bedtime stories to fall asleep dreaming over. 73 Doug EI2CN -----Original Message----- From: [hidden email] <[hidden email]> On Behalf Of Art Suberbielle Sent: Sunday 19 April 2020 16:36 To: Elecraft list <[hidden email]> Subject: [Elecraft] K-4 capabilities As we all await the arrival of the K-4, I'm wondering if the radio will "remember" all of the settings per band.

Anxiously awaiting it. There was promises of more and frequent conversation unless I am mistaken. I paid for it in full and am not going to cancel it but would like more information

Yes getting some more info would be great. I have been bugging the boys
at Elecraft for an electronic copy of the manual, but nothing yet. I have all the cabling done and a spot cleared on the desk beside my KPA1500 for either my K4D or K4HD, I too have paid the full amount and just waiting for the early May date when California will ultimately decide if people can go back to work or will have to stay isolated further. I think from reading everything hinges on that time frame. In the meantime I guess we will have to wait and stare at pictures of the K4 Front panel. -- *73 De Mike* *VE3YF _/http://www.ve3yf.com/_* ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [hidden email] |

Hello Mike and friends,
Well you are not in the EU and do not need to wait for CE approval. The start of this process can only begin as I understand with a production model. Until CE approval is obtained Elecraft can not shirt to the EU. I am not complaining about EI being in the EU but am anxious. I suppose one could bring one back from the USA on a plane and declare it in the airport but there are no flights out of EI to USA for such purposes these days. My radio is also paid for and ultimately it will be the K4HD. One can add the "superhet ?" front end later when it becomes available. 73 Doug EI2CN PS this is what happens to one who is cocooned. Over 70s in EI are not even supposed to leave their property to go grocery shopping ; this is something neighbours are expected to do. -----Original Message----- From: [hidden email] <[hidden email]> On Behalf Of Mike VE3YF Sent: Sunday 19 April 2020 17:57 To: [hidden email] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K-4 capabilities Yes getting some more info would be great.

In reply to this post by Art Suberbielle-2
And, how will I be able to interface CW Skimmer for contesting? Will there
be a I&Q output available in MME format as there will be no IF. 73, Barry K3NDM On Sun, Apr 19, 2020, 12:37 PM Art Suberbielle <[hidden email]> wrote: > As we all await the arrival of the K-4, I'm wondering if the radio will > "remember" all of the settings per band.
