[Elecraft] Is there a K4 on the horizon?

[Bill Frantz]

Going out on a limb: The K4 will appear as upgrades to the K3. 
The new synth is an example.

Trying for Wyley E. Coyote levels of limb walking:

  A program interface to the auxbus for custom station automation.

  Digital audio interface between the K3 and Mac/Linux/Windows.

  More equipment for backpack stations. e.g. power, antennas, etc.


If Elecraft makes a car radio, and I would definitely interested 
in replacing my IC-706, I hope it follows the lead of car 
entertainment radios going back to the 1940s and has single 
button tuning for at least 5 presets. If it is like the more 
modern radios, it may have both push and hold tuning for each 
button. A serious attack on driver distraction with ham mobile 
radios would be a very valuable feature.

Another nice feature for a mobile rig is automatic tuning for 
screwdriver antennas.
