At 1920x1080 you can see 4.7x the span for the same Hz per dot frequency resolution as the smaller internal P3 display. A 200 kHz span at 1920 wide shows the same level of detail per dot as about a 43 kHz span would on the smaller P3 display.
Also, with more vertical lines the waterfall covers a much longer time period. It also looks -really- cool.. ;-) 73, Eric www.elecraft.com On 12/17/2011 12:38 PM, Phil Hystad wrote: > There sure seems to be a lot of interest in the P3SVGA display.
