I'm saving up for my next purchase which will likely be the P3 or the SubRX and want to know what the P3 does that my current setup doesn't ? I didn't have the cash to get the P3 during my initial purchase so I have a slightly modified SDR (cost $20+shipping) connected to my K3S monitored on my laptop by HDSDR softeware. I get a full display of the IF spectrum showing the correct and current frequency. I can click on any signal and the radio automatically tunes there, view the audio, hear the audio on my laptop if I choose. For $14 each I added x2 - 15" Monitors for a total of 3 displays.
Most of my operating will have a laptop for logging so that's not an issue. I'm currently running the latest version of HRD but am considering a different RIG control software that's more specific to the K3S but it will need to integrate with the rest of the HRD suite. So the question is: what will the P3 do for me that I don't already have? I definitely see a huge benefit of seeing the radio IF signals and am looking at a setup for the CW thing to watch the entire IF if possible. I will be getting the P3 eventually regardless but it's priority has changed from "need/very nice to have" to "want/integrated feature". Comments/suggestions on or off-list welcome. Probably best to answer off list. Thanks in advance.
