[Elecraft] P3 and SSTV

[Gary Gregory]

Why would a Dxpedition take an extra keyboard along to plug into the P3?

Why did Elecraft add QRQ to the K3?

I guess it's fair to say many of the available features in products today
are ignored by many and I am sure there are other 'features' that are not
used by many.

It was just a thought after all.

Nuff said, end of thread.
