My K3 # 6108 is getting the the new synth boards, the higher current output
mod for the phono jack, and the new transverter module with the built in
preamp for 24 MHz and up.
That'll be a pretty good refresh. I didn't see much else in the K3S that
wetted my whistle.
I have a P3 and could also be interested in the new TX monitor, freeing up
my LP100 for shop use, and giving me a better view of my TX signal than
occasionally dragging my 'scope upstairs to look.
However, I wasn't able to get to Dayton. I could not view the new P3 TX
monitor function 'live' ... and the screen shots on the FAQ sheet are not
useful to me.
I would like to suggest that a short video be made of the unit, live, in
operation.
The switching back-and-forth of this single P3 screen from RX to TX, for
digital, voice, and CW modes, could be disconcerting enough to me to
rethink the possible purchase and make me look again at the costly but
really neat LP500. If that ever actually ships.
