[Elecraft] P3 - Waterfall Marker?

[Steve Ellington]

Paul et al....
"Freeze" locks up everything including the marker so how does that help?

When searching for signals we might see one on the waterfall that is half
way down the screen. We want to mark, click or do something to get us
exactly on frequency so we can either wait for the signal to return or try
calling QRZ however there doesn't seem to be a way to get on frequency
other than a rough guess.

At first when you mentioned "freeze" I was excited but now I find that
using freeze makes the situation even worse since nothing responds. I'm
just looking at a locked up system!

The marker needs to be independent of the displayed material....Like a
mouse on virtually any other SDR software.
Is that something Elecraft can do or is it impossible with this hardware
configuration?

Thanks
