LP-Pan vs K3 unit

[rfenabled]

If, as we are lead to believe that Aptos are going to release a stand alone box to match the K3, I would hope that it will provide a clear choice in such a way that we are able to have our cake and eat it too.

1. Matching box
2. External monitor
3. PC interface
4. USB mouse support
5. 192Khz or better waterfall
6. Colour screen
7. Point and click
8. Auto tracking
9. Remote capture and save facility
10. Integrated K3 utility onboard
11. Visual audio spec-an equal to spectragram etc (not the useless display such as the FTdx-9000 series)

Price including these features will increase the more features are added, but to be worthy of the Elecraft name it needs to be a quality product that enhances the already impressive K3

Maybe this is just a dream, but it sure makes waiting interesting....:-)

I would be heading to the bank for one like this if available from Elecraft

I think having all these features can only be economically implemented
with an external  computer.

For me, I only wish for a real panoramic display in color with
adjustable bandwidth.  Having the ability to "see" the band offers such
a significant advantage that I feel quite blind without it.

Mice, point and click functions, K3 utility on-board, and most of these
other things require some sort of operating system.  You're basically
asking for a complete PC built into a K3 style box.

All I want is the ability to see the activity around me on the band I'm
currently using.

This all would be nice, but as I want just 1 keyboard and 1 mouse I also
would like to have the possibility to run all my apps on this box.
N1MM
HRD
Several propagation and logging progams.

Etc etc.

Hmmm, this sounds like a complete computer?

I think I keep it with my LP-PAN and spend the money on improvement of
my pc.

What you want depends on what you do and how you work. I do a lot of
contesting on HF and I am interested in weak signal reception on VHF and
higher.
For the contesting I need a complete integration with my logging progam,
point and click. For weak signal a display of the whole IF is nice, but
what I need is simultaneous detection of all the signals I see. And  I
want this info in my  software.
No external PAN adapter for me.
