I follow the N8LP site and I note beta copies of the LP500 are soon to be
shipped - must say it looks very tasty
Most of LP500 information is for personal interest, with little help for
DXing or contesting. Also extra cables needed, e.g., for trapezoid display.
P3 does one thing well. Extras would cost hardware and software.

Some time ago, Wayne asked about what new features such as SSTV could be
integrated into the P3 the SSTV part seemed to be low on most users

Hi Phil,
To many, including myself, it is unfinished. There were lots of
hints and teases about a TX monitoring addition that has not materialized. That
was a consideration in the original purchase.

I must be simple - as the P3 satisfies my needs and operates as
advertised. Operating as advertised is important - many rigs cannot
really do that (watch the wording in the advertising as a gotcha).
Of course a few enhancements - such as a turkey roasting timer, remote
lawn mower control, and

I use digital cameras and all firmware updates (if

I have one feature I would like to see on the P3. I would like the demodulated
