Re: [Elecraft] P3SVGA waterfall problem
I received the replacement board you sent yesterday and popped it in last night. All is OK now. Thanks for the quick turnaround. I'll get the original board back in the mail today for you to inspect. BTW, in addition to the future waterfall bias adjustment, would it be possible to have a similar adjustment for external monitor height, or just an independent external waterfall height adjustment? Thanks and 73, Larry N8LP Paul Saffren N6HZ wrote Hi Larry, Would you be able to give me a call at Elecraft today or email me your phone number and good time to call? I would like to talk to you about the waterfall problem you are having with your P3SVGA board. Just call the main Elecraft number and ask for Paul S. 73, Paul -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/P3SVGA-waterfall-problem-tp7448086p7462627.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. __ 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

Re: [Elecraft] P3SVGA waterfall problem
Thanks Paul. that will help me! Waterfall is too dark on the external display when is set where i like it on the P3 display. I just set it in between but will enjoy the bias setting. Also noticed a calibration difference between the two displays. Looks like they are about 3-4 dB different when long term averaged. 73, tom n4zpt On 4/10/2012 12:27 PM, Paul Saffren N6HZ wrote: W4CCS, The next version of SVGA firmware has a 'bias' feature that allows the user to increase the waterfall coloring threshold. 73, Paul W4CCS wrote For what its worth, I have the same problem as Larry.

Re: [Elecraft] P3SVGA waterfall problem
Hi Larry, Might try increasing the reference level on the P3 or the intensity (brightness on the monitor).

Re: [Elecraft] P3SVGA waterfall problem
Hi Bill. I tried the entire range of the REF level control with no effect. Raising the brightness on the display just causes the black to turn gray, plus I want to share the monitor with other things which precludes having a special setup just for P3.
