Here's what's interesting:

If the P3 does in fact use a quadrature mixer post I.F. buffer amp (and not 
directly digital-sampled like the SDR-IQ), that means all the hooks are in 
place to feed its I/Q outputs to a premium sound card and of 
course...PowerSDR as an alternate display and decoder.  All it takes is a 
couple I/Q audio jacks on the P3's rear panel if they're not there already 
(wink wink).
