[Elecraft] P3 Photo

[Paul Christensen]

Although the P3 product is still in development,  it looks like a very 
attractive and functional matching accessory for the K3.  A few questions:

-  What is the typical MDS seen on the display?
-  Is a low-noise, unity-gain buffer w/ BPF utilized at the I.F. input?
-  Assuming it's powered from the K3 or alternate +12VDC source, what is the 
measured amount of current (thinking ahead for portable operation)?
- Any photos of the tentative back panel available?

Although I probably would have opted for a stand-alone "black box" device 
(and hoping that may be an alternate version one day), I can see the 
marketing logic where a large number of potential purchasers are looking for 
a transceiver with a built-in panadapter.  Even though the P3 is a 
stand-alone unit, it appears to be well-integrated with the K3 to give it a 
"built-in" look and feel.  This should put the K3 in the running for buyers 
who would otherwise purchase the K3 but for the fact that it lacks a 
built-in panadapter.
