Since it utilizes direct sampling, there’s no need for crystal filters in the K4 or K4D (see Models, back page). The K4 includes dual receive over 100 kHz to 54 MHz. The resulting user interface makes the technology transparent, allowing you to focus on working the world. Our new K4 harnesses the latest in signal processing while retaining the best aspects of the K3S and P3. Light weight, low current drain – compatible with field operation

#K4 RECEIVER RADIO SOFTWARE#
Powerful, fast-booting CPU accommodates future in-box software applications HDMI, Ethernet, analog/digital audio ATU with 3 ant. Silent PIN-diode T/R fast QSK many features for CW ops High resolution mini-pan,per-receiver, for accurate tuning & search Main/sub receivers can be on same or different bands single or dual panadaptersĪdd HDR module, future 15 watt VHF/UHF module, etc., as neededĮncoders for VFO A, VFO B, RIT/XIT offset many user-programmable controls

Builders will learn about advanced radio technology as they proceed. This module will support all modes.Ī no-soldering kit version of the K4 is planned for later release. Internal VHF/UHF module (future 2021 option)Īn expansion slot is reserved for a high-performance VHF/UHF module (covered bands to be announced), with an output of approximately 15 W. It includes 3 antenna jacks, any one of which can be selected as an input for one or both receivers. The KAT4 ATU has a nominally 10:1 matching range. Since the signal chain is software-defined, the DSP can be field upgraded to add new algorithms and operating modes. Direct-sampling technology results in an ultra-flat passband response for clean RX and TX audio.
#K4 RECEIVER RADIO FULL#
Standard DSP features include easy-to-adjust, per-mode RX/TX EQ clean, punchy RF speech processing full DVR capabilities and several built-in data decode/encode modes. Data and speech-processing delays are also minimized. This, combined with silent, PIN-diode T/R switching, ensures fast CW break-in. The RF signal chain in the K4 incorporates parallel hardware processing of data streams, including a dedicated DSP subsystem. The K4’s powerful CPU provides unlimited expansion opportunities. This extensibility applies to software as well.
#K4 RECEIVER RADIO UPGRADE#
You can upgrade or add options as desired, or as new technology becomes available.

Our advanced fine-tuning aid, with its resampled bandwidth as narrow as +/- 1 kHz, is displayed separately from the main panadapter. High-resolution mini-pan for each receiver An internal VHF/UHF module is also planned. For extreme-signal environments, we offer a dual superhet module (standard in the K4HD).
