I thought long and hard about a K4, but couldn't stand the idea of
a two year wait for whatever reasons given. If design decisions and
supply chain choices cause you to lose customers, it says that
Elecraft needs to have a long moment to get their house in order.
Or, they will fall into line with TenTec, Collins and many other
American companies that have folded tent.
We all went through the pandemic, and worked around it..... So, I
ordered a Flex 6600M and it was delivered in 8-days. No two year
wait. They have something figured out. I was also assured the PGXL
1500W amplifier ships in the same time frame.
Go figure.

You may have missed the two-year long pandemic that, among other
things, has sickened multiple Elecraft employees, caused many to
work from home, and disrupted supply chains, to the extent that
nearly all the major carmakers can't get chips to put cars on
dealers lots. Elecraft is a small company, and they're swimming in
the same ocean as the rest of us. They're 20 miles down the road
from me, and I know several of their employees, as well as the two
owners.
