Thanks, so SVGA display has zero knowledge of the existence of the TX Monitor

Was there any sort of statement from Elecraft on the non-support of SVGA of the

You also do not need an extra computer *or* display for the base P3
and it does not take display space away from the logging software.

I have owned both and if you have a K3 and want the best use the P3/SVGA
better integration and do not have to use your computer. There can be
software glitches and I had problems with mine keeping it running all the
time due to them.
I personally would never downgrade to LP-Pan from my P3-SVGA
Paul,
I started with the LP-Pan and NaP3, and it worked very well. I now have
the P3SVGA and like it a *lot*.
For some context, I only used 'Fixed Tune' mode with both scenarios, and
generally limit the displayed bandwidth to somewhere between 30-50KHz.
The P3 screen, though it is small,
Dale,
I'm glad you mentioned the taller waterfall display on the external monitor.
This fact is important for anybody considering the P3SVGA option. When used
in the fixed tune mode I have found it extremely beneficial operating search
and pounce in contests. In some contests with long exchanges
Option three is an SDR-IQ and Spectravue software. I use LP-Bridge to
connect the K3, SDR-IQ, N1MM, DXBase (logging) and AXETTY (an MMTTY variant
that works with DXBase) together.
I use a laptop and a second larger monitor and arrange stuff as needed for
different operating modes (i.e RTTY

I've owned and used all three solutions ... P3, SDR-IQ and LP-Pan. I
sold LP-Pan and SDR-IQ sets on the shelf. The P3 is used every day.

I own both. The P3 is by far the better integrated solution. Adding
the SVGA to it is a good idea and very useful for a number of
functions (decode display mainly), but primarily for the higher
resolution and ease of use in a shack setting.
The LP Pan works as advertised, and I bought it before
Heinz,
This is a function of how the K3 decodes CR/LF and passes it to the P3/SVGA.
This is on Wayne's list for the K3.

Paul,
Thanks!
As this may probably be not the only point on Wayne's list, my P3SVGA
projects have to wait for some time.

Hi Stephen,
During TX the P3/SVGA's display is frozen. Are you speaking of the TX
cursor (red) when working split or when Rit/Xit is turned on?

Adrian, are you saying you are running the K3 Utility data display in parallel
with the SVGA data display at the same time? If so, that is what is causing
your problem.
They can not both run at the same time as they will compete for data from the
K3, resulting in dropped characters. Run the
Ok now I have done as Eric said I now have made a few qso's with the
P3SVGA data keyboard. More practice will help. I will comment further
later.
Thanks again Eric as always.
