Many thanks for the updates on the resolution issue, Alan. 2048 real FFT points interpolated to 1024 (or more) horizontal pixels will be a significant improvement in frequency resolution. However, the increase in vertical (time) resolution should be even more dramatic. With only 272 vertical pixels, some of which have to be used for the spectrum display and for scales and labels, the P3's waterfall display struggles to represent brief transients like key clicks, electric fences and other forms of QRN. With 768 (or more) vertical pixels rather than 272, these transients should all become clearly visible. Having a dual-monitor PC display but no space for a third large screen, I will probably switch the second (15in) monitor between the P3 and the radio PC as required, while keeping the P3 display active as well. Thinking about that, the button labels will not be useful on the larger display, so will it be possible to show those on the P3 only? -- 73 from Ian GM3SEK http://www.ifwtech.co.uk/g3sek ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
