You sure know how to hurt a guys feelings, Alan, I plan to use an "old analog RTTY demodulator", the HAL ST-8000 with my K3 :^) !!! I, too, would welcome a good X/Y tuning feature on the P3. Any updates on when we might see the P3 and price?? I am new to the group, just having finished my K3

Lyle, am I correct in my understanding that the P3 does not require any connection to a personal computer for any reason? If it does rely on an external PC for anything, will software be available for all platforms (as with the K3 utility) or only for Windows? Those of us who use Macs obvious
