I am pleased to announce the release of Win4K4Suite. This release requires
K4 firmware, beta R25 or higher. Many thanks to Kevin Rowett and Brandon
Hansen who helped make this happen!
For those of you who have used Win4K3Suite, you will find a familiar
experience with almost all the same functionality only limited by the
current K4 firmware.
Win4K4Suite is a comprehensive control and integration platform for the
Elecraft K4. One of its key features is the ability to run up to 6
applications simultaneously over a single serial port or the K4 Ethernet
connection. While the radio itself allows such sharing with its 3 serial
ports and its Ethernet connection, Win4K4 will allow applications that do
not have ethernet capability to run remotely using the built in virtual
radios. This includes WSJT-X, DXLab, HRD Logbook, and pretty well all third
party products.
In the first release of Win4K4 the following features are available:
-Full control of the radio presented in a large and "mini" format
-Support for USB connections and Ethernet
-Access to commonly used menu items
-Club Log profile applied to your favorite cluster
-CW - FSK - PSK terminal with logging to your favorite logger
-6 virtual radios that allow you to run other 3rd party software or hardware
products simultaneously. They work even with Win4K4 over a network
-Macros
-Shortwave Database based on the EiBi Database
-Audio Oscilloscope
-Audio Spectrum Scope
-Support for the SDRPlay RSP devices
With the current firmware in the K4 the following features are not yet
available:
-Frequency Memories: Not yet available in the K4 firmware
-Native K4 spectrum output: Not yet available in the K4 firmware
-Ethernet connectivity of the KPA1500.
All these features will come as the firmware matures.
