Well Fred, I find the waterfall valuable for displaying the recent history
of signals, showing those that have stopped recently still travelling down
the screen. 

Also, I can recognize different content and modulation systems on the
waterfall better than I can with the spectrum display, although that's
surely not true for someone who has spent a lot of time studying the
spectrum of signals. 

Yes, the waterfall is "color coded" and also varies in brightness or
intensity. Low-level signals are blue and the colors shift through yellow to
red for the strongest - with the normal mixtures in between.

I did notice that the waterfall seemed to be of little use to me, and I 
don't know if that's because I'm not real fond of waterfalls and use the 
MMTTY spectrum display on RTTY, or because the P3 waterfall is 
color-coded somehow that's lost for me.
