I just worked V73D, but not sure how I would have done it
without using the 2nd RX. I love my P3, but for DX stuff the
2nd RX always seems to be the difference.
I find the P3 is really good for finding the DX in the first
place. (I am frequently in places with no Internet access.) A DX
pileup has a special look on the P3 with one (weak) station
transmitting and then the pileup coming back (except for the
ones who aren't listening to the DX and are just transmitting).
I agree with Mike that the P3 is also good for finding an open
place to transmit, particularly valuable when doing RTTY.
OTOH, I have a brand new 2nd receiver and diversity was
wonderful in the California QSO party. It beats the REV button
hands down. I would go with the P3 first. HIHI
