That's what I've been lobbying for.   The P3 with I/Q outputs, 400 KHz 
bandwidth, and computer control (via the K3 or direct) would have 
powerful SDR capabilities with all kinds of potential third party 
applications.  Without the I/Q outputs, it's a very expensive dedicated 
display.

Possibly Elecraft yet has some version of that in mind, but with all the 
fuss I've raised on the topic I would have expected some indication if 
they did.

Oh well ...
