Igor,

While it's a nice idea, it may or may not be possible to implement. BUT 
-- we're both pretty active contesters, and I wouldn't dream of working 
a contest without one. The SVGA card makes it even more useful -- the 
waterfall can be set to provide 2 minutes on screen, which really helps 
when trying to find a run frequency. You can look at the patterns to see 
which frequencies have someone running, and even when skip doesn't let 
you see the run station, you often see his callers. A waterfall tweaked 
for lots of averaging is great for finding weak signals on a band that 
is barely open. And a P3 is great for chasing down sources of RX noise.
