K4: panadapter directional coupler required?

[N1VH]

Will a directional coupler be required for the K4 panadapter, similar to the P3, or will that be integral to the K4?
Thanks.

The panadapter is built in to the K4's display. See it on our website!

Hi Brian,
I understand that the panadapter is built in to the K4.  

The directional coupler added additional functionality to the P3.  It gave real power output and SWR,  as well as an output waveform.  All functions I use today.  I was wondering if that functionality is avail in K4 since there is no input from the feedline if using an amp or external tuner.  

Thanks.

The K4 has internal and external TX waveform monitoring built in. It should directly support any amp that has a TX sample output, such as the KPA1500.
