Let me start by saying that I belong to several radio reflectors and know they all have their cheerleaders no matter what radio or device it might be. We all know that there are not a perfect radio, car, amp whatever and those that find no fault with anything are only fooling themselves.
My question and point both is about the P-5 that I was looking closely at after reading everything here and on the website about it. It sounded like and excellent choice with a lot of features that tied it to the K3 plus with the VGA adapter for a larger screen size made it look even more attractive. Was making out a wish list with things I wanted for a K3, on it just for a pricing standpoint option/filter wise. After being directed to eHam from the company website for reviews on the P-5 I read them all. I might say with all reviews on eHam there I usually throw out all 5 and 0/1 ratings as I imagine many of you do also. I read them but place little credence in them the 2 on eHam that I did read carefully were comparisons and point after point that seemed to be real short comings of the P-5 not being ready for prime time. They were not digs by any means and said what a great unit it "could" become then compared it to several SDR's which I do or have owned and the Lp-PAN which sold. He gave them much higher marks for a spectrum analyzer and why for each function plus another receiver to boot. Can someone please give me the benefits of the P-5's display over the superior one of my current SDR-IQ and hi rez screen support. Or if there are a lot of improvements coming to the P-5 very soon and if so when and what are they. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thx and 73, Fred/N0AZZ ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
