Hi Phil, 


The details you missed are here: 


http://www.elecraft.com/manual/P3%20Xmit%20Mon%20FAQ-ver-A-7.pdf 


The TX Monitor works great with the P3 display, no need for it to 
be displayed on a large monitor. On the other hand, the other P3 
displays benefit greatly from the SVGA option.

Dennis, 

Thanks, so SVGA display has zero knowledge of the existence of the TX Monitor information (not the RF Envelope and not the TX PEP/SWR windows). 

Was there any sort of statement from Elecraft on the non-support of SVGA of the TX Monitor? If there was I most likely missed it. If I remember, TX Monitor came after the advent of the SVGA option. 

However, not big deal as, like you said, there is always the P3 to look at if needed. 

73, phil

For example, I use my P3 in the display mode that has the bar graphs showing PEP and SWR. Are these supported on the SVGA controlled display?
