Small matter of programming. There's plenty of code space, but just one lonely guy--Paul--tackling the wish-list, working in the bleak silence of the after-hours, armed with a keyboard and a slice of stale pizza but without so much as a small dog to keep him company. I can try slipping him an

Can we get a little more in-depth technical explanation as to why the P3 can't display decoded text on its TFT-LCD display? Neither the P3SVGA nor PX3 decode text. They simply display text characters already decoded by the K3 and KX3, respectively. Why can't the P3 write the text decoded by

Hajo, If you have not concluded by now from the various posts, the text decode for the P3 does not appear on the P3 display. With the P3SVGA option, text can be displayed on the attached SVGA display, and keyboard text will also be displayed and transmitted. You do not need a computer,

Hi Hajo, As far as I know (I do not have a K3/P3) the SVGA-card is an addition to the P3 that enables connection of a separate monitor. To my knowledge there is no need for a running computer. 73, Peter Op 2016-08-23 om 14:23 schreef Hajo Dezelski: I would not like to have an additional

Thanks Walter and the others, So this explains the performance differences between Px3 and P3 . I don't want to miss the functionality of the Px3, so I fear I have to shovel a longer time money into the corner to fulfill my dream. 73 de Hajo DL1SDZ --- Cela est bien dit, ...,mais il faut

Text decode was added after the original design of the P3. That was added using the P3SVGA. The PX3 was designed years later, and had decode built in. If you are waiting for the P3 to have text decode without the P3SVGA, you may have a very long wait. Like forever. wunder K6WRU Walter

Hello, And a big thank you to all who have responded and saved me a lot of money. The Kx3 and the K3 without waterfall etc. are in my eyes part of the fun which I don't want to miss anymore. So I thought that the wealth of features on the Px3 would be implemented on the P3 too, but obviously

Hello, I am considering to buy additionally to my Kx3/Px3 Combo a K3/P3 Station. After reading the P3 manual up and down I found no way to switch on text decode display on the P3 screen without installing P3SVGA. Did I miss something or do I have to buy the additional option. 73 de Hajo DL1SDZ
