LPB2 is a version of LP-Bridge that is intended for use with transceivers other than the K3 (K3S and KX3). If you are running a K3, LP-Bridge (not LPB2) will provide better performance because it buffers some of the K3 information and thus reduces the need for frequent access to the K3 for

Hi Larry, It depends on the span. Unlike some other panadapters, the P3 automatically reduces the sample rate as you narrow the span, which improves the sensitivity. For example, I have my HP8656B signal generator set to 3640 kHz with the amplitude as low as it will go (-127 dBm). The K3 has

Re: [Elecraft] LP Pan versus P3 Panadapters

For some reason that goes against what I think many are looking for in the P3, if one has to narrow the span to 2khz, then I see no use for the P3 at all, I need to see what is on the band at -127DBm at 30 to 50khz or more span. If the signal is only seen at 2KHZ, I can hear that by ear and

No I didn't have to narrow the span to 2 kHz to see the -127 dBm signal. Anything less than about 30 kHz was sufficient. Also, remember I had the K3 preamp off and the attenuator on. With the attenuator off, the -127 dBm signal is visible all the way up to 200 kHz span. With the K3 preamp

Re: [Elecraft] LP PAN and Point and Click

After reconsidering I came to the conclusion that I just want to be able to see a portion of the band I'm on. Sure, point and click would be nice but if I really want that, I'll go with the all ready existing panadapter or something like Flexradio. Yes, I have a PC in my shack and it is used for

Re: [Elecraft] LP PAN and Point and Click

I'm sure Elecraft will make their panadapter as powerful as possible for the price -- but it's pretty tough to beat the utility-to-price ratio of a $300 netbook + $495 SDR-IQ unit -- a I suspect you expect too much from a $300 netbook thingy. But isn't it amazing that the price of the

Re: [Elecraft] LP PAN and Point and Click

Honestly I'm perfectly fine with a computer solution but I want the same amount of power and flexibility no matter if I'm sitting in front of Windows or Linux or even Mac for that matter! I give high praise to Elecraft for keeping software update utilities for all 3 OSes and they are all kept up

Re: [Elecraft] LP PAN

How about a variable rate tuning knob with a built in push switch. I am thinking of the tuning system on the old (1970s) Cubic/Swan Astro 150. This was a variable rate spring loaded rotary control that speeds up the tuning rate as it is turned further clockwise or counter-clockwise from

Re: [Elecraft] LP PAN

The LP-PAN Software Defined Panadapter works fantastic. I use the K3/LP-PAN/PowerSDR combination and it far exceeds the panadapter display on my IC-7800 in both weak signal sensitivity and real time display refresh rate (not to mention the ability to mouse click on a displayed signal and jump

Re: [Elecraft] LP PAN as i see it

Many people buy the LP-PAN but get bogged down in it's complexity and end up selling them. It's not plug and play. You're dealing with: 1. K3 must have the KXV3 board, $99, installed. 2. BNC coax cable to LP-PAN. 3. LP-PAN $227 assembled. 4. Cables from LP-PAN to sound card. 5. Sound card

Re: [Elecraft] LP PAN

Dave, I purchased a LP-Pan and a E-MU 0202 a few weeks ago and had no problem getting either of them working and interfacing DXBase. I wonder if you have given Larry a call at Telepost? The only minor problem I had was with the PowerSDR software. For reasons only known to the computer

Re: [Elecraft] LP PAN

Linux users can install quisk-lppan-k3. It's a far simpler user interface than the PowerSDR software. We're hoping to port it to Windows as well some day. It can control the K3 directly, or work through fldigi, which is a digimode program that itself runs on Windows, Mac, and Linux.
