Back before MIR went kerplunk, there were a lot of interesting SSTV images
coming down from aboard. Haven't seen anything of much interest since then, but

Only a possible guess.
You could try a direct Frequency Entry to a frequency in the 2 meter band.
Do it once with VFO A selected and then swap VFOs (A/B button) and do it
to that VFO as well.

From the fan specs, it sounds like you have found a suitable

sounds like a winner.

I dont think picky is accurate.
The RF sensor was prior to the svga board and as such it is reasonable to
expect that it will be that way.
Not all P3's are sold with the svga and i imagine sales of the rf sensor
could be higher if that option was not required.
The cost of the sensor will be a
Right, the sensor is an optional module that plugs into the rear-panel
power supply board and has a rear-panel connector that matches a W2
wattmeter sensor. It does not require an SVGA module.
