Howdy Gang.
As the old year draws to a close and the New Year is upon us, let me be the first to propagate the rumor that Elecraft will announce at the 2021 Xenia Hamfest the introduction of the KX4. This highly portable SDR rig will have a 6 inch touch-screen/display, offer 160M-70cm range at 10W output, full QSK, internal tuner and battery. Additionally, it will have WI-FI, Bluetooth and Ethernet capability. Full duplex for Satellite ops, naturally, and all of the typical goodies you would expect in a portable Elecraft transceiver. Believe the above is enough to start a lively discussion of what we would want to see in the new KX4 (grin). I’m sure Wayne and Eric are already in the prototype stage of this new rig (grin) and it should become the rage of the Xenia Hamfest in 2021. Wishing everyone a safe, healthy and prosperous New Year. 73, Joe W2KJ I QRP, therefore I am ______________________________________________________________ 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] |

Always an optimist in the crowd :) But I hope you're right...

Maybe Elecraft should consider a move to Sweden? ;-)
