Re: [Elecraft] svga big size!
Hi Nate, I was intrigued by what you posted so I took a look at the back of my 2nd monitor. I currently use it to display the VE7CC cluster program and would like to have it do double duty with my P3. There is a VGA connector (which I use with my PC) and a DVI-d connector on the back. There is a button on the front of the monitor that has the shape of a monitor with an arrow pointing in towards the center. When I push the button, the monitor goes blank and then comes back with the VE7CC display and the word ANALOG momentarily across the center of the display. So I suppose if I had the P3 connected to the DVI-d port I would be able to toggle between the two. DVI to VGA adapters are cheaply available to convert a VGA cable from the P3 to DVI. You just have to make sure you get the correct variety of DVI adapter as there are pin variations. This would certainly be cheaper and cleaner than using an external VGA A-B switch. 73, Mike K2MK Nate Bargmann wrote * On 2011 16 Dec 03:55 -0600, Dick Lindzen wrote: Will one need a dedicated monitor or can it be shared with a pc?

Re: [Elecraft] svga big size!
The P3 SVGA option uses an analog VGA connector. So you should be able to connect the PC to the DVI or whatever connector and the P3 to the VGA.

I trust that the K4 will have the same form factor as this display and that the K4 VFO knob will be the same diameter as base of the stand for the monitor. Ought to make a lot of guys happy.
