This was brought few times already and pretty much was black holed by Elecraft. The reason is that too much need to be done in hardware and software for pretty little value added, plus, I am sure it also would increase P3 price dramatically. But there is a "workaround"! I discovered Reversed Beacon Network and bunch of nice people who actually put very nice SDRs with Skimmer online and report on DX cluster every station that did CQ or TEST in their CW transmission. I use N1MM as my rig control software and it has band maps where all the cluster stations appear as they are reported. It is almost like having your own skimmer without all the hassle! 73, Igor, N1YX
