Why do you say that these photos and videos demonstrate why the integral 
P3 is a winner over a PC based panadapter?  I came to the opposite 
conclusion but I'm willing to wait for more information.   If you want 
to run anything else on the PC based on the K3 IF output, CWSkimmer for 
example, you would still need something like LP-PAN and a high sample 
rate audio card.  If you make that investment, I don't know why you 
would also buy a P3 when it really doesn't seem to do anything that 
PowerSDR-IF (which is free) can't do.  It aso seems that there is no 
mouse control for the P3 which I think is a drawback.  I admit that I 
would like that 'toy' but I don't think I could justify buying it solely 
based on a capability that exceeds what can be done with a PC which I 
don't think it has.  Now, if you just WANT it, I can understand that.  
Boys really do like their toys.
