Personally I like the idea of using an LCD screen for the
display. It would cut down on production costs and the
display would be nice and large. Or at least, to have the
option to direct the display to an external monitor.
Once done, the Elecraft panadapter should have some VERY
COOL features that are just not found in other displays.

Jack - I hope that Wayne and Eric contract with you to
produce the
"panadapter" for the K3. It should have that kind of
functionality as well
as at least a vertical line indicating the xcv freq and
when split, both the
tx and the rx should be indicated as well. Of course, a
color display with
the lines in different colors as well as a "sweep hold"
function or at least
a "peak sweep delay" of some sort. The ability to hook a
large flat screen
monitor would be very desirable as well. USB mouse port
and no computer
required.
Just because the rig is small, it doesn't mean that the
display has to be!
Old eyes will appreciate it! 73 es gud dxing -- Don

On the Flex SDR-1000, for example, the ability to click
on signals
spotted on the very high-resolution panoramic display is
totally cool.
But it's the concept that's cool, not the
implementation. Does one
necessarily require a computer and a mouse to implement
this concept?
Of course not. Just use some good engineering
imagination! Perhaps the
upcoming Elecraft K3 Panadapter will have this kind of
functionality
implemented in some really elegant way no one has even
thought of
yet. :-) I wouldn't b surprised.
This feature is already available to K2 users owning a
Z90/91, in both
waterfall and normal panadapter mode. Put the mouse on
the area and
click and the K2 is tuned to that frequency. With an
optional "nearest 1
KHz" box, as the SSB operations seem to be channelized
on 1 KHz raster
these days.
