[Elecraft] P3 question

[Phil Anderson]

Hi Julie,

Use the third button down and the right side of the P3 front panel - 
called SPAN and widen what you are looking at. You can go as wide as 200 
kHz. That should do it.

I like to use 100 to 50 kHz span so can see more detail on the P3 
screen. I also added a 19 inch monitor so I could see the "big picture." 
To use a monitor, you need to add the serial port in/out to the P3. 
Then, you attach your USB-to-serial port adapter from your computer - 
assuming you are using one - so you can run from a variety of computer 
programs from your keyboard to the K3. Those would include the terminal 
program that comes with the K3 kit. I recently installed N1MM+ (and have 
the second RX in the K3) so have two panels open on my other monitor 
(for the computer) wherein I can see/control/log in two panels, one for 
VFOA and one for VFOB, good for contesting and reg op as well.

73, Phil, W0XI
