I don't own a P3, but if I did I'd like to have the option to make the waterfall scroll from right to left like CW Skimmer does in Blind Mode. With a bit of practice, you can teach yourself to visually decode CW (assuming the resolution is adequate) sufficiently to catch a missing character without having to ask for a repeat. Having the display scroll right to left makes the CW string read left to right like most of us would more readily grasp. I'm not saying that a vertical scroll is a LOT more difficult to read ... only that horizontal is more intuitive.
