Well since you asked and made this sort of official, here's a few
things, though in no particular order of merit:
Integrated 7” (or bigger) panadaptor with touch screen.
‘Proper’ band stacking registers.
Equal sized vfo knobs for A and B.
Individual mode buttons.
AGC, NB, NR all with front panel controls adjustable on the fly.
More digital mode integration, built in FT8 with up-gradable software as
digi modes develop.
Integrated PSU for 100-250 Vac.
50V minimum PA.
Ground Breaking earth shattering TX IMD.
Using the built in touch screen full descriptive menu.
Bigger rotary controls with more space.
RF performance equal to or better than best of the best.
Modular design with bare bones to fully loaded capability.
PA options from 10 to 500 watts fully integrated with ATU (KPA500/KAT500).
I/Q output.
Proper base station radio without concern for portability (K3S is
already the leader there).
More extensive API giving ability to do literally everything the radio
can do from a computer.
Removeable head so the base radio can be remoted and the control head
used from where you need to be.
More ‘And’, less ‘Either or’ (Mic/Line selection level etc).
