[Elecraft] Elecraft KIO3B and WSJT-X

HI Josh:


Another possible source of 12 VDC powered monitors is the Recreational Vehicle industry.  Many RVs have appliances (including TVs) that are powered from the "house battery", which is almost always a 12 VDC system.  And, many TVs have a VGA port on them... plus video, and HDMI, as well as an antenna port.

It's a good idea, but too severely limiting since almost all monitors 
now run on 19V. Thus far the HP 23es is fine. I ran RTTY with it next to 
KPA500 on several bands with no issues. Final test will be pointing the 
6m EME array at the shack and listening. The monitors look really good 
and were on sale at Best Buy for $119!
