Is an “Elecraft style” full manual planned for the K4? The K4 introductory
manual that was in the box with my new K4 is really more of a feature brochure,
and the electronic document internal to the K4 is more thorough than the
introduction manual but still a lot less detail than what I got

Robert,
I really like the idea of a matching active and passive speaker set for the
KX3; I’d be very interested in having one active one, with an internal
rechargeable battery, and one passive one. Having a USB on the side for
additional functionality is also very desirable. Thanks for
Robert,
I love the idea, I’m wondering about whether a square or rectangular speaker
grill would look better. 73,
