They are rare these days. Epiphan makes one at $700. Avermedia used to
make one at $150 but they dropped it. I wish Elecraft would update the svga
to hdmi.

Hi Zeke,
What VGA capture card are you using?
Thanks,
Fred KE7X

The WIN4K3 rig control software provides control of the P3 as well as the
K3. 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.

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.

Having been playing around with the P3 for the first time, can I suggest
a future feature please. Whilst the built in display is very nice, it
would
be helpful if it were possible to get the spectrum data in a PC in
realtime
(ish). There are a couple of applications for this but the main one is to
integrate the waterfall/spectrum with DX spots. At the moment I run N1MM+
for VHF contesting. My station is optimised for Search and Pounce (S&P).
I
have an IF tap into my K2 and use a soft rock plus USB sound card to get
a
waterfall band map using Waterfall Bandmap(WBM). WBM integrates with
N1MM+
and shows cluster spots/stations I have worked) along the frequency axis.
Hence if I see signals in the waterfall I can quickly see if I have
worked/need them.
