Re: [Elecraft] P3 CENTER button and SVGA display

2016-03-20 Thread Vic Rosenthal 4X6GP/K2VCO 
There is a bug fix in the latest beta version of P3 firmware that might 
apply:


P3SVGA 01.33 / 3-7-2016

* Center Frequency in Tracking mode:  Fixed an old bug that caused the 
VFO A cursor to reset to center of screen when VFO A was tuned after the 
user had adjusted the center frequency offset using the CENTER function 
in tracking mode.

Hi Gang,



I have the P3 with SVGA option and a K3.



The firmware appears up to date, according to the P3 Utility.



I've set CenterEn: ON and use the CENTER button and the P3 knob to move DX
pileups more into the center of the display.



When I hold the CENTER button while in CENTER mode, the P3 display returns
the VFO A green bar to the Center position, and the red bar of VFO B to the
correct vertical position relative to VFO A.



However, the SVGA is hopelessly confused at this point, and the VFO A green
bar and the VFO B red bar are incorrectly positioned.



A power-cycle on the P3 is required to return the SVGA to normal.



I thought I might be getting RF into the SVGA port - but now have discovered
this happens without any TX at all.



Any suggestions or further things to check will be greatly appreciated!



Thanks.
