about 20-30KHz, I hear a signal that I think is what's on the P3. Any

Something I noticed from the video that I like is that the entire waterfall
display moves when you tune the radio -the waterfall doesn't smoosh out over
the screen. I think that's an improvement over the equivalent mode on the
P3 where the waterfall fractures when you tune the radio. Bob W3DK

Dick - The P3 and Fldigi are really looking at very different signals and have
very different uses although there is some overlap, and that's what maybe gets
confusing. The P3 is a "fish finder" for a big hunk of a band - the P3 looks at
the K3's IF and can represent as much as 200kHz of it
The Pi 3 is very appealing by virtue of space and low cost. I'm interested but
for a K3S and P3. Bob, W3DK

When I'm in SSB mode and I tune down to the CW frequencies, I can easily
tune in a CW signal. Then, I switch to CW mode, and the CW signal is gone
because I'm on the wrong sideband. Even if I'm on the right sideband, the CW
signal disappears. Shouldn't I be able to switch from SSB to CW and not
