Now so many people do this it seems to almost be a requirement to have a P3 or panadapter of some sort.
I think the concentration of the pile-up on the last worked station is due as much to CW Skimmer which highlights "5NN" as it is to the P3 and other panadapters. Given the skimmer behavior, the panadapter seems to be an even greater advantage as it allows one to identify a "hole" near the last worked station ... I certainly feel "blind" when using a rig on the workbench without the P3! 73, ... Joe, W4TV On 3/9/2013 5:38 AM, eric norris wrote:
Has anyone else noticed just how many people are now able to pounce on the last frequency TX5K used? Back in the day you swapped VFOs and listened for the calling station. After I got my P3 it seemed to be a real advantage because you could instantly find the calling station (if you could hear him). Now so many people do this it seems to almost be a requirement to have a P3 or panadapter of some sort. Of course, I could be wrong. 73 Eric WD6DBM ______________________________________________________________ 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
