Re: [Elecraft] P3 Panadapter while transmitting
I do support the demand that Elecraft should reconsider the K3/P3 control while transmitting. My recent posting [P3] Display freeze during CW keying does address the same deficiency. The addition of a P3SVGA would make no sense before the reported imperfections are fixed. Hopefully the P3 will remain a fully usable 1st class Spectrum Analyzer instead of becoming an All-in-one device suitable for every purpose (in german: eierlegende Wollmilchsau). 73, Heinz HB9BCB N2ZDB wrote ...

Unless/until Elecraft introduce a separate RF sensor for the K3/P3 monitoring during transmit makes absolutely no sense. The IF output *is not valid in transmit*. It does not accurately reflect the RF output, it is offset to the actual transmit frequency and any signal is the result of random coupling in the circuit. Although the P3 might make a pretty picture in transmit, the picture is not worth the electrons it takes to make it. Hopefully the P3 will remain a fully usable 1st class Spectrum Analyzer instead of becoming an All-in-one device suitable for every purpose (in german: eierlegende Wollmilchsau). The P# is not a fully usable Spectrum Analyzer ... it is a limited function panadapter (narrow range spectrum analyzer - dedicated to the transceiver IF). 73, ...

[Elecraft] P3 Panadapter while transmitting
I have a K3 with the P3 Panadapter and I notice that if my ESSB is OFF and I transmit and then turn on the P3 I can monitor my audio bandwidth at the correct center frequency. Audio playback works great for this - giving me plenty of time to re-boot the P3 during the K3's transmit. However if I enable ESSB this is no longer the case. The signal is no longer where it should be - does anyone know why? It would be nice if the experts at Elecraft could work into the K3/P3 firmware so that we could monitor the transmit audio instead of the P3 just freezing!!!
