Actually you can.  Go into the P3 menu and set CenterEn so that Center Key is 
On."

Hi Gary,

Yes and no.

Yes if you are using Tracking Mode where VFO-A is in the center of the
screen. Tap the SPAN/CENTER button and change the span width to 5KHz with
the P3 knob. Hold the SPAN/CENTER button to bring up the CENTER adjust
feature. Turn the P3 knob clockwise to get VFO-A off of the screen.

No if you are using Fixed-Tune mode. You cannot get VFO-A off of the screen.

Gary, use the SPAN button on the front of the P3 to narrow the kHz 
covered. It will automatically adjust on your big flat screen too.
As I recall, adjustments like this track by band, but not sure. Just try 
that.

Hello all,

I am relatively new to owning a P3 / SVGA combo and have done some 
searching and wonder if the following way of operating is possible?


Let's say you have a DX station operating on 14025 and listening 5 to 
10 up.  VFO A is on 14025 and VFO B is split on the 2nd receiver 
tuning the 14030 to 14035 range.


Is there a way to display the spectrum from 14030 to 14035, filling 
the width of the screen?  I would like to take advantage of being able 
to look for holes or the station the DX station is working, taking 
advantage of the big wide screen.

[Elecraft] [P3} View a range of frequencies?

2015-10-04 Thread Gary K9GS 

Hello all,

I am relatively new to owning a P3 / SVGA combo and have done some 
searching and wonder if the following way of operating is possible?


Let's say you have a DX station operating on 14025 and listening 5 to 10 
up.  VFO A is on 14025 and VFO B is split on the 2nd receiver tuning the 
14030 to 14035 range.


Is there a way to display the spectrum from 14030 to 14035, filling the 
width of the screen?  I would like to take advantage of being able to 
look for holes or the station the DX station is working, taking 
advantage of the big wide screen.
