I thought that the suggestion to include WinKey and FSK hardware was a good one. It would be nice to plug directly in instead of needing additional peripherals. There already is an internal keyer in most newer transceivers so business was taken away from the many external keyer manufactures as technology improved.

Retooling the K4 to put a real WinKey chip or Mortty hardware inside, or
attempting emulation via firmware, could delay K4 shipment or distract from
other higher priority issues.  It could also raise the price a bit.  I
don't think anyone wants to see either.

Finally, there's no reason for Elecraft to try to take sales opportunities
away from the manufacturers of WinKey and Mortty devices, is there?
