Sometimes when I have idle time on my hands the mind tends to wander off, so
with this in mind please be kind ok?..:-)

Could the P3 become a SSTV decoder and display a digital image?..The is a
program proving quite successful called EasyPal and it got me to thinking
that if future expansion of the P3 features will include a PC keyboard I got
to thinking what else could be added.

Given the room available my thought was that this could be achieved.

To load an image perhaps a USB port or USB/Serial connection to store SSTV
images.

Certainly there are ways to use the K3 with a simple connection to a PC but
when you are operating in a remote are or DXpedition environment the ability
to TX/RX  SSTV would be an added bonus.

Anyone got any comments?
