[Elecraft] Interesting Stuff At Dayton

... well ... it is a 2nd receiver for any signal that is available to
it from the K3's IF. That means only signals that make it through the
passband filter.

Larry has several very innovative items that he sells, including probably the most unique wattmeter/SWR meter you can find anywhere (the LP-100A).  What caught our attention was Larry's new panadapter for the K3.  He's contemplating doing one for the K2 as well.  Anyway, this new gadget (I hope I don't offend Larry by calling it a gadget) is very impressive.  You should really go to his website to get the full details, but believe me, it is really a slick piece of engineering.  I'm not fully familiar with the Icom bandscope on it's higher end rigs, but I think this product from Larry will rival or exceed what you find there. opens up al Additionally, it really constitutes a 2nd receiver, which l sorts of possibilities.  For example, maybe if you get this accessory you really don't get enough more with the Elecraft 2nd RX????  Can't really say that for sure, but it's pretty clear that Larry has something that might give one pause as to whether or not they need something over and above that.  Anyway, the demo Larry gave us was most impressive.  I suggest you keep one eye on his website for more details.  In any event, the panadapter is fairly reasonable, and is available in either kit form or fully assembled.  Larry says building it is not very difficult or time consuming.  By all means, check all of this out.
