Hi Tom,

I definitely want to add a readout on the P3 for the K3 text decoder.
As soon as I have time (pant, pant!).

I think a "plus sign" tuning indicator would be way cool, especially if
I can make it look slightly sloppy to imitate the CRT analog tuning
indicators on TTY demods of old.

I like the idea of being able to operate RTTY or PSK with the K3/P3 from
the field without a computer.  I find that sending RTTY with the key
paddle works fine, but the 7-character display on the K3 is a
limitation.  Text readout on the P3 would fix that problem.

A keyboard option would be great too.  You can get a miniature USB
keyboard without the numeric keypad etc. that doesn't take up too much
space.

Too many cool features, too little time...

Alan
