That was my experience as well. I initially had the LP Pan but later switched to the P3 panadapter.
The P3 in my experience is far easier to use under practical operating conditions. You can widen or shorten the span to zoom in on a narrow part of the band, or zoom out to see across the band. You can easily adjust to put the noise floor at the bottom of the screen and adjust the height of signals so it all becomes more easy to follow. All of this can be done quickly with one hand. I like my toaster and I don't regret buying it. -----Original Message----- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net <elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net> On Behalf Of Craig Buck Sent: Monday, February 17, 2020 7:48 AM To: ae...@carolinaheli.com Cc: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [Elecraft] When might there be a P3 sale or drop in price P3 doesn't have a mouse point-and-tune feature that I know of.
