[Elecraft] P3 SVGA reset and frame freeze, anyone else?

[Paul Saffren N6HZ]

Hi Bill, 

There is a known P3/SVGA slowdown around 150 KHz span width.   You mention
that you are using 1.16 firmware in the P3, what is the firmware version of
the SVGA?   (there are two separate pieces of firmware needed).   You may
need to upgrade your P3 utility to the latest revision (1.12.4.26) which is
available at http://www.elecraft.com/software/P3/elecraft_p3_software.htm 

If you're still having trouble, please email me directly, my email address
is pauls at elecraft.com and include your phone number and a good time to
call. 

73, 

Paul
