I've already started thinking about making a smaller, lighter box for the P3 innards, for travel purposes. If I were to send it to Elecraft, I'd put it back in the original box. 73, doug PS, my apologies for any HTML mail I may have sent. On 01-Sep-10 02:09, Alan Bloom wrote: (Giggle...) I

Bill, The P3 already handles the K2 IF output, in fact, it handles anything from 455 kHz through 21.7 MHz. It is not available in the EC2 enclosure, but you are invited to squeeze it into that if you have sufficient desire (you will have to re-design the front panel). For use with the K2,

The first pre-P3 panadapter prototype was actually built in an EC1 cabinet. It had a cute little 64x128 monochrome back-lit display, and a knob and seven buttons on the front panel. A P1? :=) Alan N1AL On Tue, 2010-08-31 at 21:18 -0400, able2...@aol.com wrote: I for one would really like to

(Giggle...) I think it actually would be possible to home-brew your own P2. Just buy a P3, take it apart, and mount the components in an EC2 chassis. The LCD display looks like it would just barely fit - you'd have to come up with some way to mount it to the front panel. The Front Panel PC

Hmmm... would it come with one of those big magnifying lenses on a stand like they sold for 7 TV sets back in the 1950's so the picture looked like it was 10 - if you sat directly in front of it. Ron AC7AC -Original Message- P1: the size of a sports watch - 1.5 x 2 inches. matt

Having just built a P3 kit this afternoon, in about 1.5 hours and another hour playing with it, I am now an expert (I know Alan is the real expert). No, this one is not mine, but it was for a friend - I am still using the cheapie softrock/Z1 and PowerSDR solution. The P3 build is

I took one of Jack Smith's Z90's and repackaged it in a box that's the same width and depth as the K2, is tall enough for the Z90 display, and is constructed the same way as the K2. I also added an internal USB interface. I'm traveling right now, or I'd send put up a photo or two. It's also
