Gary,
The "Sensor": input on the rear of th P3 is there for that
purpose....however, the device has not been announced by Elecraft to date
despite repeated requests.....
I too really do want to be able to monitor my TX signal, one of the
disadvantages I have is that I operate "Portable" from my Motorhome 24/7
and as you can imagine, this constant changing of the station setup leads
to mistakes or oopsies when setting up..:-)
I also beg Elecraft to listen to our pleas....
