[Elecraft] *NEW* P3 Transmit Monitor Feature and use of W2 sensor

[Phil Hystad]

> The new adapter is included FREE with the upgrade.. Should not be an issue..


It doesn’t sound like your comment answers my question.  I see that there
are three components to the P3 TX monitoring thing:

       1.  New adapter which is installed inside the P3.
       2.  Transmitted signal sensor (for frequency and power rating)
       3.  Firmware update.

Now, we know that item (3), the firmware update, is FREE.  But, of items (1) and
(2) I would only like to purchase the adapter (item 1) and reuse my existing
W2 sensor which I already own (item 2).  I see from the order sheet that the
Elecraft part numbers for the P3 TX sensor and the W2 sensor are the same so
I am assuming that maybe they are indeed the same.  Maybe even use the same
cable.

It seemed like such a logical reuse of existing equipment.  It may be too early, but I didn’t find any way to order just the new P3 adapter board by itself.
