Hi Zeke, What VGA capture card are you using?

With a VGA capture card feeding the VGA image to the computer over a USB 3.0 connection, the P3 is replicated in a resizeable window on the computer. It adds the ability to point & click on the screen or use the mouse roll wheel to tune the K3 frequency.. With it, I almost never look at or touch the P3 itself and am thinking about moving the P3 off the operating desk. zeke, ab8ou On Mon, Jul 3, 2017 at 7:17 PM, Don Wilhelm <[email protected]> wrote: > Paul, > > The P3 does not have a digital data stream output, and I am certain what > it has is not compatible with any input to the computer. > You can add the SVGA option to obtain a greatly enlarged display, keyboard > support for entering data mode text or CW, and display of the K3 decoded > PSK31/63, RTTY or CW. > > If you want to continue to use the SoftRock in conjunction with the P3, > there is an IF OUT from the P3 which will allow you to do exactly that. > > BTW, some other hams used my K3 with P3 for the CW station at Field Day. > At several points they commented "It is like shooting fish in a barrel!". > They ended up looking at the P3 rather than at the K3 display most of the > time although they tuned with the K3 VFO knob and did not try to point with > the marker and tap the knob to QSY. > > 73, > Don W3FPR > > On 7/3/2017 2:53 PM, Paul Wilton wrote: > >> Having been playing around with the P3 for the first time, can I suggest >> a future feature please.
