Interesting. And if you already have a W2 can you connect the sensor to both or do you need two sensors? Or could I retire the W2? On 8/17/14 5:25 AM, Alan wrote: It uses the W2 wattmeter sensors. According to the Elecraft order page there are three flavors of sensor: DCHF-200 1.8-54 MHz, 0

I hope that is not to imply that products and enhancements should be scheduled in the same order that concepts come up on this email reflector. i.e - I don't understand what the relevance of "prior to the svga board" has to do with the order in which products, options and enhancements are desi

Right, the sensor is an optional module that plugs into the rear-panel power supply board and has a rear-panel connector that matches a W2 wattmeter sensor. It does not require an SVGA module. Alan N1AL On 08/16/2014 05:38 PM, Joe Subich, W4TV wrote: I hope the sensor is a stand alone opti

I dont think picky is accurate. The RF sensor was prior to the svga board and as such it is reasonable to expect that it will be that way. Not all P3's are sold with the svga and i imagine sales of the rf sensor could be higher if that option was not required. The cost of the sensor will be a signi

I don't believe Wayne meant to imply an RF sensor for the PX3 is under development. He was replying to a query about the long awaited sensor for the P3. We have been waiting for one for the P3 for a long time, and there has been a hole for the connector on the back panel since day 1. Bruce/N1RX
