[Elecraft] K4 Panadaptor Display

[Grant Youngman]

I display, whether physical or logical (e.g, a quadrant of a real display), only supports a single input — it has no means to “window-ize” multiple inputs.

Thinking about this some more, it seems it should be possible, eventually, to put a piece of remote software on the same machine that runs your other radio apps, and accomplish what you want to do. You can still only have one display controlled by one computer, but that one computer could be running multiple apps including a remote K4 display in a window.

One for a logging program & one for the K4 display) or buy a much more expensive display which enables you to have separate quadrants for separate programs? This seems a rather retrograde step compared to most other current transceivers or have I misunderstood? I suppose you could use the touch screen display as an alternative but why not output the K4 display to your PC and then put both outputs onto a single screen?
