If u would like a real bandscope with a completely real time
oscilloscope-like trace (as well as a xmas tree), get the SM-220 or
SM-230 from Kenwood.  Probably no longer made, they mate with the
TS-950 and its juniors and really work even when u are turning the
tuning knob.  Likely Kenwood lovers will not part with theirs, so gud
luck on finding one.  No computer needed at all.   This OLD
TECHNOLOGY remains superior to anything I've seen in the new market
today. Too bad it must mate with such a medium-performing rcvr.

I have to disagree. I had one, and the bandwidth of the filter used is so wide that it's impossible to distinguish cw signals a few kHz apart. It definitely does not provide the kind of display found, for example, on newer ICOM rigs.

I too would like a standalone panadapter (bandscope, whatever) that does not require a computer, but I don't miss the Kenwood unit.
