Since you asked . . .
These would not be high priority for me, though if the PX3 could drive a large
screen I might make use of it. HDMI would be the better choice.
Option number 2 – text on the P3 screen – is not important to me for two
reasons. For one, in all the years I have owned it I have never used the K3’s
text decode even though I am 100% CW. And if text did appear on the P3
screen, I wouldn’t be able to read it on that screen anyway. Too small.
What I would have liked, had they been developed in this order, would have been
an SVGA panadapter device without its own chassis and screen. Right now my P3
is used solely to drive a large monitor. Other than pushing its programmable
buttons now and then I never look at the P3 itself.

I've attempted to fold in the feedback thus far. If you haven't already,
please reply to this thread if you're interested in one or both of these new
features.
PX3 TO LARGE SCREEN
Feature #1A (preferred). Elecraft to develop an internal adapter (i.e.,
PX3HDMI) to
connect a PX3 to a large screen through an HDMI interface.
Feature #1B. Elecraft to develop an internal adapter (i.e., PX3SVGA) to
connect a
PX3 to large screen through an SVGA interface.
DECODED / TRANSMITTED TEXT TO NATIVE P3 SCREEN
Feature #2. Elecraft (Paul Saffren, N6HZ) to modify the P3 firmware to
write,
* text decoded by the K3, and
* text to be transmitted / transmitted text
to the P3 TFT-LCD screen (without the need for a P3SVGA). This firmware
change
must continue to support the existing P3 Tx Mon (Transmit Monitor)
option, for
example, displaying the power output and SWR displays in place of the
decoded
text during transmit,
