[Elecraft] SVGA BOARD FOR THE P3

[Mike K2MK]

Hi Paul,

I had the P3 sitting on top of the K3 and I was completely happy. I bought
the SVGA board and am now twice as happy. I can view a wider area (even
though my monitor is only 1280x1024) and the waterfall function is  now
taller and has proven to be far more useful to me than on the P3 alone. 

If you like to view decoded CW, RTTY, or PSK it can display that as well
without losing hardly any screen real estate. I am fond of this feature.
There is also a keyboard input for sending RTTY or PSK which I'm not using
but others have found that it works quite well.

I already had an external monitor connected as a second monitor on my PC. It
has front selectable inputs (SVGA and DVI) so I can still use it for the PC
as well as with the P3. (It just required a bit of switching around on my PC
to establish the main PC monitor as SVGA and the secondary PC monitor as
DVI). A push of the monitor button flips it between the PC and the P3.

73,
Mike K2MK
