Re: [Elecraft] P3 TX MON envelope display

Is there a link to some photos where I can see what this looks like? I did not know about the SWR/PWR indication. As for the envelope display, I would expect it to be good enough to indicate trouble or not. Years back, I ran a Heath SB-610 which saved my finals one time. The rig went into

The modulation monitor is like an oscilloscope in that it triggers on the rising edge of the modulation. So the display is not quite continuous - after every sweep it waits for the next positive transition before starting the next sweep. This is especially useful in CW mode so that the

Out on youtube if you search for "P3 TXMON" you'll find a couple of short (1 min video) of an operator showing a SSB and CW envelope on a P3 with the TXMON option installed. Tom, W2YF >>> >>> On 2/3/2016 8:26 AM, Barry N1EU wrote: >>> Can someone with the P3 TX MON please describe the

Do you have a link to a youtube video showing a phone waveform? The only video I come up with is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHugxEpj6bg with NB3R showing only a cw waveform. That's why I posted my question in the first place, because I've never seen a phone waveform. Barry N1EU On Wed,

Barry, I don't have one, but I have seen them in use. The envelope display looks like what I see on my analog 'scope. It may be digital, but the refresh rate is fast enough you will not be able to differentiate it from an analog display. 73, Don W3FPR On 2/3/2016 8:26 AM, Barry N1EU wrote:

The envelope display is not a “snapshot”, but it isn’t quite real time either. Close, but if you’re used to using a scope for monitoring, you won’t call it “live”. Also, the vertical height of the display is always normalized to the peak RF signal and there are no sweep width/rate

Can someone with the P3 TX MON please describe the envelope display in ssb/am modes? Does it work like a real time oscilloscope (dynamic) with changing display as you speak or does it take static snapshots of the RF envelope? If static, how often does it update those snapshots? Thanks & 73,
