Re: [Elecraft] P3 Panadaptor many different tools

I've used the P3 to make both stills and videos for use in radio classes. What AM looks like, CW SSB USB LSB ...PSK RTTY When width set to 5kc, it is a great analyzer. Some USB stations have considerable LSB content. oops. And lots of strange stuff from EQ settings & overdriving

Re: [Elecraft] P3 Panadaptor

Hi John, Set your Span to 10 KHz., then go looking at the pileups for either of the DX operations that are out there now... Offset the center to the side, and look at the people calling the DX station... Watch the traces as the DX station answers callers, you will see the people he is answering

Re: [Elecraft] P3 Panadaptor

I'll echo what everyone has said about using the waterfall. Pretty much just maximize the area of the waterfall display to the extent the P3 will let you. Then S is a matter of hopping from trace to trace, and you don't miss the ones you would be missing by tuning past them without the display.

Re: [Elecraft] P3 Panadaptor

The waterfall is what shows vacant frequencies. It gives you the most recent history of frequencies. To start set the span so there's about four or five operating slots per inch. I make the amplitude display as squished as possible and the waterfall as big as possible. I also have the SVGA

Re: [Elecraft] P3 Panadaptor

I think you may need to reduce the span on your P3 so you see a smaller part of the band with more detail. The right level of detail depends on whether you are using CW, RTTY, or SSB. A span of 20 or lower is good for CW. With RTTY, you want to see both tracks of the signal as an aid to

Re: [Elecraft] P3 Panadaptor

Well, it makes unassisted S/P a lot faster; just tune for the next blip. And, if you have directional antennas, like a NE beverage on 160 or 80, it helps to pre-qualify some signals as to multiplier possibility. And it certainly helps to see how close the interference is when you're running. I

I added the P3 panadaptor to my K3S line this year I have used it twice - in the CW WPX RTTY contest and in last weekend's WPX Phone contest. I have not found any use for it (in contesting) other than to tell me that the band segment is fill of signals, which I already knew. I did not notice any

[Elecraft] Swap Elecraft P3 Panadaptor

Hi- I have a P3 Panadaptor hardly used and not essential to my operating which is rather laid back CW. I would get more use out of another K2 or KX3. If you are interested in a trade of sorts, let me know. 73 de Dave K1OPQ. in NH .6O3-746-fifty ninety.
