The main MixW guy is a true real-time and FFT software engineer. A lot of
his code is really superb. Still, even MixW suffers somewhat from the same
human-resource issue that afflicts most ham-related code.

Every project seems to grow to the point where it strains the capacity of
its developer right to the limit and in many cases beyond. All those goodies
that we get with consumer products, are a pretty big stretch for the typical
one-man show, or small team of guys, working part-time for love more than
money. Nowadays, the available ham software includes drivers, virtual ports,
virtual audio channels, FFTs, interrupt-driven routines, forward error
correction, and a whole bunch of stuff that requires a far higher level of
expertise than was needed to write the simple apps we played with a decade
ago.

Maybe it all started with Peter Martinez, the guy who concocted PSK31.
Anyway, with respect to your specific question, it sounds like if you stick
with MixW then your P3 will update the way you  want it to.
