[Elecraft] LP-Pan vs K3 unit

[Doug Person]

I think having all these features can only be economically implemented 
with an external  computer.

For me, I only wish for a real panoramic display in color with 
adjustable bandwidth.  Having the ability to "see" the band offers such 
a significant advantage that I feel quite blind without it.

Mice, point and click functions, K3 utility on-board, and most of these 
other things require some sort of operating system.  You're basically 
asking for a complete PC built into a K3 style box.

All I want is the ability to see the activity around me on the band I'm 
currently using.
