I get that too, but usually just for 2 or 3 seconds and sometimes not at all. I have never got my head around it, but I think it got worse after fitting the SVGA board. That leads me to another 'feature', in that the SVGA screen will occasionally do a complete refresh of the waterfall, without me touching anything else such as the VFO. It's as if a buffer which is much bigger than the screen data is being flushed, leaving no history in the waterfall at all.
I can't imagine myself being without the P3 now, however! 73 Stephen G4SJP On 4 December 2013 02:20, Larry Burke <w...@sbcglobal.net> wrote: > I am using a P3 with the SVGA option.
