[Elecraft] P3

[Gary Gregory]

Using the P3 to 'look' at the pile-up and setting a frequency to call on IS
the single most important benefit of the P3 (for me) and this works a treat.
As for 'other' uses I find it uninspiring as I don't have any need for a HD
large screen external display. I am portable 24/7 and there IS a limit on
'stuff' I can drag around...:-)
The introduction of the Tx 'option' long promised but as yet not spoken
about with any clarity IS a great feature (when it arrives) and for me
something to look forward too.

Don't get me wrong, it IS a typical great product and useful tool!
