Dare I ask    Will it Blend?     http://www.willitblend.com/    ok this 
should only be tested in a virtual test environment whit no real 
Elecraft products,  that would be a crime.

Ok seriously now    I am weighing my options for the next big upgrade to 
my fairly basic K3-100 with tuner.    I am thinking what will be the 
best bang for the buck

sub reciever?
I have multiple antennas at the cabin in the middle of nowhere, where 
local QRM from powerlines and neighbors is very low to nil so diversity 
would be nice.     So2V in contests listening to both VFOs at once.  and 
cheating on stations running split by finding his last QSO frequency.
what else is the sub reciever good for   I am sure Ive missed some good 
uses.

P3
Getting a broad view of the band  over the last short time, and seeking 
out signals modes etc.   much better for searching a apparently dead 
band this way than scanning several times and still missing a station.  
Visually finding the next posible S&P QSO in a contest     Am I on the 
right track here?   are there any more major advantages aside from the 
extra PF keys of course.

at this point I am leaning to a P3 first then sub receiver next.
