Which is why I'm quite happy with my LP pan and power SDR option....

I complain about this at Dayton every year and am always told it’s not necessary. It’s not necessary any more than the P-3 is necessary but it sure would be a nice feature.

When operating a contest in S&P mode and using the P3 to search for signals, I find the current functionality suboptimal. I have yet SVGA option with a large screen; it would be so much easier to be able to use a mouse and have true "point and click". I wonder if this will ever be a reality. It would make the P3 far more functional.
