[Elecraft] Elecraft P3 panadapter at the Orlando Hamcation

[Dave - AB7E]

So instead there are a lot of people who want to spend three times as much money on a small screen just to show them a graphical display of band activity??  Apparently so ...

The advantage, in my opinion, of a more universal piece of SDR hardware (like LP-Pan or SDR-IQ) is EXACTLY that it would be able to run other software, either current like PowerSDR or CW Skimmer, or other applications that I am firmly convinced will be available in the future for things like propagation analysis, band activity analysis, quantifying signal distortion on received signals, etc.  In my opinion, the P3 could have easily been designed to do offer that capability as well the other more dedicated stuff it does, but for some reason it wasn't.

But I'm equally sure
there are a lot of people who don't want the huge ugly screen hogging
resource hogging PowerSDR application just to show them a graphical display
of band activity.
