Hi.
The problem these days, is not only if something is exposed to the www,
but even if it can only be "seen" by other nodes on the same LAN. Such
as the main shack PC, that probably can reach out to the WWW. Once
"something" gets into that PC (or your IoT lightbulbs!) It can at it's

I apologize if we have created any confusion on this topic. (Yup - we have been
a little busy as of late with the K4 introduction ;-)
To be clear - we do not plan on granting open access to the main CPU or K4
internal operating system. That would be a impossible situation to support and

Well, all good discussion, but I advise that you do not hold your breath
for "open firm/software in the K4," or basically any access at all.
It's just beyond what any manufacturer can do. I suppose Eric, who is
noted for his business skills, could start up an "E-tunes" app store for

At this point I am pretty sure Elecraft is up to their neck getting a clean

You guys have now reached the scenario I was trying to ask about last week,
but obviously didn't make myself understood.
When I asked if the K4 would be able to 'talk to the outside world', I meant an
ability to initiate communications with a web site, a server, or something else.
Yes, allowing
The Elecraft guys might agree to this after a night of heavy drinking, but I

nightmare for them, and one for the rest of us, too.

streaming I/O, runs the server for remote clients, and serves as the
present/future app engine.
Additional details pending.
