Re: [Elecraft] P3 beta software - Span Step NOT sticky

Re: [Elecraft] PX3 Possible Bug - Refresh Rate Slow Depending on KX3 Digital Mode Selected

Hi Brian, The slower refresh rate at narrower spans is normal. The reason is that at these narrower spans (below 24 KHz) we effectively down sample the I/Q stream. Down sampling requires the PX3 to acquire many more samples for each screen which directly affects the refresh rate. The
