[Elecraft] P3 and Other Windows Simultaneously

There are monitors on the market that have PbP (Picture beside Picture) 
capability built-in.  I just acquired a Planar Systems IX-2850 4K 28" 
display which can display two, three or four inputs on-screen at once.  
Since it's a 4K display when four inputs are shown each one still gets 
1920x1080 pixels.

One note to remember however is that a 28" 4K monitor has very small pixels.
