[Elecraft] P3SVGA Display

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft]

At 1920x1080 you can see 4.7x the span for the same Hz per dot frequency 
resolution as the smaller internal P3 display.    A 200 kHz span at 1920 
wide shows the same level of detail per dot as about a 43 kHz span would 
on the smaller P3 display.

Also, with more vertical lines the waterfall covers a much longer time 
period.

It also looks -really- cool.. ;-)

73, Eric

Also, I do not have any SVGA displays and would probably have to rearrange the rig bench to fit one in besides buying it.  So, I would be interested in hearing what other's are doing with the larger screen.  I presume that it is dedicated since it seems to have its own SVGA connector.
