[Elecraft] LPPan vs. P3

[Bill W4ZV]

The first two reviews below are by folks who also have used LP-PANs.  Any
comparison to "LP-PAN" is meaningless unless you specify which software
you're using with it (i.e. PowerSDR, Rocky, Skimmer, etc.)

BTW don't make your decision based solely on the display size...that's what
the "External Display" cutout in the rear panel is probably for.  ;-)

I'm personally still undecided because I love Skimmer's waterfall for
contesting (its Blind Mode is OK for unassisted).  However its does have
some limitations that the P3 solves nicely.  I'll probably use both (which
is possible since you can feed the P3's IF OUT to Skimmer with a 3 dB
splitter loss) until I see how the P3 evolves.  One big limitation of
Skimmer is that it only has a 24 kHz Span (in "IF on Softrock" mode which is
what I use for the K3) versus the 200 kHz Span in the P3 (and which may
eventually be increased).

73,  Bill
