[Elecraft] K4 Capabilities on 630 Meters?

Hi Wayne, 


Your email implies that the K4 no longer has the capability to transmit 
a few dBm on 630 meters to drive an external 630 meter amplifier. 


Does the K4 now require an external transverter, unlike the K3 that 
provides a few dBm of 630 meter TX output? 


tks
