[Elecraft] P3SVGA - Coming soon

[John Ragle]

Based on 2 responses to my query about the P3 display, I would have to 
say this is an absolute design disaster. It kills completely my interest 
in the product. I had envisioned a hardware card that would communicate 
with software running on the PC, not something that required a dedicated 
monitor. I think the product needs some serious re-thinking.

"Hi, John, the P3SVGA has it's own output connector, to connect directly 
to a monitor. It will not share the display with anything else, like 
your PC (unless some external hardware is used to accomplish this). It 
is designed to use it's own dedicated monitor. (In other words, filling 
the entire screen). 73, Bruce, N1RX"

"John, My understanding is that, similar to the Yaesu DMU-2000, this is 
not a computer application that uses a window. It requires a dedicated 
monitor or one that can be switch between the P3 and a computer using a 
switch in the monitor."
