Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Thinking of adding a second monitor

Before going for 2 monitors look at the "4x" monitors that have 4 times the 
real estate as normal HD monitors.

I used 2 monitors for years.  The second one had a different viewing angle 
and was distracting.  I now have NaP3, ADS-B, logging, antenna rotor, Afedri 
SDR, and Digipan (or MMTTY) all on one screen.

You may need a new video card.  I bought a cheap Intel NUC with the 4x 
display built in.
