Paul I bought and used an SDR-IQ after I dumped LP-Pan with my 5000 it did work better for sure your right. But still the P3/SVGA comes out on top for all the added features like CW/PSK/RTTY decoding and using the K3 macros to send no computer needed. The SVGA gives you the extra of seeing the larger decoded CW and digital signals a big plus.

I use LP-Bridge to "connect" the K3, SDR-IQ, N1MM, DXBase (logging) and AXETTY (an MMTTY variant that works with DXBase) together. I use a laptop and a second larger monitor and arrange stuff as needed for different operating modes (i.e RTTY DXing, contesting, etc.) Wes N7WS --- On Thu, 2/21/13, paul ecker <[email protected]> wrote: First, I looked in the archives and didn't really find an answer. I have a K3 and P3 and love the combination, but seeing a P3 with a P3SVGA card in action at Orlando Hamcation, I have been considering adding the P3SVGA card to my P3. But have read some articles about the LP-Pan and I am interested in opinions on overall capabilities of P3/P3SVGA combo vs. LP-Pan/NaP3 combo. The individual items are roughly the same price. (I understand that an external sound card will be needed with LP-Pan) So can anyone who has experience with each, give some opinions on the pluses and minus of each terms of capabilities, and recommendations on which way to go? 73 Paul kc2nyu ________ ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
