[Elecraft] P3 vs LP-Pan / NaP3

[Fred Jensen]

I tried LP-Pan and NaP3 before buying my P3. Panadapter displays are 
sort of like the urban legend that all snowflakes are different ... 
after a year in the northern interior of AK, I can assure you ... "seen 
one, you've seen 'em all." However, like all Elecraft gear, the  
integration between the P3 and K3 is very tight, and coupled with the 
macro and software control capabilities makes the P3 far superior.

I bought mine more or less as a toy to replace the external HW, cables, 
and additional SW on the PC.  I find now that it is what I look at while 
operating.  I occasionally operate W7RN remotely, and alas -- no P3.  
Been contemplating ways to get the 8 MHz first IF and control down from 
the station.  [Wayne: Hint for a new product?]
