Re: [Elecraft] P3 capture bug?
Alan, Yes it happens every time I try to capture an image from the P3! What settings are you looking for? I attached an image of it from my PC. 73's Michael n2zdb In a message dated 12/24/2011 5:27:45 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, n...@sonic.net writes: No, I haven't heard of that bug before.

I do screen captures directly from P3Utility.. In preparation for the capture, I get the capture screen going on P3Utility, then hit capture when I see what I want on the P3. That grabs whatever was there at that instant, and the P3 goes right back to normal operation after the capture. 73, Jim K9YC __ 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
