I agree with you David, I think there are a lot of other things that 
would be much more useful to a much larger audience than receive-only SSTV.

I'm still working at what the "ideal" span on my P3 would be, in the 
NAQP SSB yesterday, I had it at 100 KHz and it seemed pretty good.  For 
CW, I have been running at 50 KHz because the signals are so much closer 
together ... I'll give CW a try at 100 KHz and see how that works.  My 
K3 is S/N 642, and I'm still playing around with how to use it and what 
to set things at.  Yet another new dimension to ham radio.
