Actually, you can buy a very competent refurbished computer (with warranty), a nice display, and LP-Pan for less than the price Elecraft has projected for the panadapter. Along with many others I am looking forward to the Elecraft panadapter with great anticipation, but if it doesn't offer performance and flexibility instead of redundant hardware I won't be very impressed.

If you can afford a K3 (and the cost of a add on panadapter), I will "go out on a limb" and say you can afford to purchase a computer. ______________________________________________________________ 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
