Hi Vic, I have brought this up on the reflector. I have not given test mode a try but I will. It was strongly suggested to me that it was RF related but the problem crops up to the same degree at high power and running about 30 watts barefoot. I have also loaded up cables with ferrite clamp-ons and the problem persists to the same degree. Always intermittent and unpredictable.
I also have the VGA adapter and the problem is visible on both the external monitor and the P3 screen. I have not tried removing he SVGA board to see if the problem persists. It was extremely annoying when I was operating as a W1AW/2 station working RTTY split. I depended on the P3 to direct my focus to stations in the clear. It repeatedly let me down. 73, Mike K2MK Vic Rosenthal 4X6GP/K2VCO wrote > I've seen this mentioned by others, but I don't think I've heard an > official response. > > Sometimes the P3 'freezes up' for one to three seconds when returning to > receive condition after transmitting CW.
