[Elecraft] P3SVGA Display Pan Level Change When Turning VFO A or B

2012-03-23 Thread W6NEK
Hello fellow owners of the P3SVGA Display Board, I must be missing a menu setting. Whenever I tune either the main or sub VFO the external VGA average pan display trace drops from -120 dbm to -135 dbm all the while the VFO is changing frequency. This makes it all but impossible to visually

I've noticed the same thing -- in tracking mode, but not fixed mode. I don't know the reason for it and I'm pretty sure that there's nothing you can do about it. You might see if you like fixed mode, which I greatly prefer. On 3/23/2012 4:15 PM, W6NEK wrote: Hello fellow owners of the P3SVGA

There sure seems to be a lot of interest in the P3SVGA display. I had ignored most of this traffic because I just could not see the purpose in having a larger display. But, with so much interest, I am curious if I am missing something obvious. Question: is there a technical or operating

At 1920x1080 you can see 4.7x the span for the same Hz per dot frequency resolution as the smaller internal P3 display.A 200 kHz span at 1920 wide shows the same level of detail per dot as about a 43 kHz span would on the smaller P3 display. Also, with more vertical lines the waterfall
