[Elecraft] Will there be a K4

I've been a dedicated Elecrafter for well over a decade.  I've built and owned all the radios - sometimes more than once - plus the KXPA100, and many other products.  Wayne should look at my purchase history records.

But I reached the point where I got tired of orange screens so I sold everything and bought a Kenwood TS-590SG where the screen color went from yellow through orange to green.  It was a very capable radio and sounded very nice.  But I still wasn't satisfied.

So I traded it in on a TS-890S five months ago.  Now that's a beautiful, capable, colorful and HEAVY radio.  

But there's just something about Elecraft......so I sold it last week, put the money back in the bank and now I'm operating a little Hilltopper as my only radio while I take a deep breath and figure out which of the Elecraft radios that I previously owned and stupidly sold, I'll re-purchase.

I'm holding out hope for a new, colorful offering in the May time frame but if not, it's probably going to be either another KX3 or a KX2 again.  Barefoot.   

I guess I had to take the whole trip until I could figure out where I wanted to settle down....
