Hi Dave,
I am remoting my VY2TT station. Unfortunately it didn't happen before the
Pandemic. For me, the most difficult challenge was remoting the panadapter.
K4 = problem solved. Anyone anywhere with a *tablet* and internet can have
a virtual K4 at their fingertips. As great a radio as it is,
I have a K3 with the new synths and nothing in the Sherwood data or
Wayne's post gives me any reason to switch to a K4, especially given the
cost to do so. Bells and whistles are completely secondary for me
compared with basic performance, and I still think that abandoning the
K3s was a
For me, the big draw is remote operation with a panadapter.
Currently I live a mile from my radio, which makes getting on
the air a small expedition, so I need to coordinate with my
wife. She feels better if I'm handy to help with whatever comes up.

Hi Paul,
While the decision is of course highly individual, there are many good reasons
to upgrade to the K4.
Most obvious among them: the K4’s quantum leap in user interface. Second is
perhaps the expansion of digital audio interfaces, including HDMI video,
multiple USB ports, and ethernet.
Congrats Wayne and team on the K4 evaluation.
The two other responses do somewhat beg the question about what happens to the
K3s used market and pricing. Not a lot of K3s for sale unlike the trickle to
flood of k3.
At one point, I thought people were hanging on to their K3s waiting for a K4
I Love my K3+(new syn)!

Sherwood has posted his measurements of the K4D's receiver performance in his
table:
http://www.sherweng.com/table.html
We're quite pleased with his test results, which confirm that the K4/K4D is
near the top of its class (direct-sampling SDRs). A K4HD would provide somewhat
higher dynamic
