Chuck:  Hate to disappoint, but the inside of the K4 will no doubt look like a computer (my K3 does) - which is exactly what it is. Nothing recognizable as RF related for us old timers to relate to. Don't get me wrong. I like my new rigs, but I do miss things I could understand (and repair).

Hello, this is not good for K4. These products are thought to be manage by operative systems and drivers (like Windows or Mac or Linux), this is not the case of the K4 that have a custom "OS" and can't manage that kind of devices. Maybe you can use more complicated and expensive devices

Hi Brian, Its a regular RJ-45 Ethernet jack on the rear of the K4. (I believe it is gigabit ethernet..) Usually your network router provides the wifi to connect wirelessly in the house (also including a DCHP iP address server.) Embedding wifi in the radio is problematic as it is a rapidly
