<End snip> I agree. My previous 3 rigs were Jupiter, Orion (1) and then OMNI VII. For me, their bandsopes were more of a distraction than a help. On the other hand, the P3's waterfall will add a new dimension to contesting and DXing. If you are in a QSO party for your state, then you are "DX". In that case the waterfall will visualize frequencies that are less crowded. Added to that, the P3 lets you spot the K3 right on a discovered frequency with a push of a button. I'd rather have a capability that helps than a useless toy. 73, Fred, AE6IC, K3 2241 " Do or Do-not.
