P3 Feature Request?

Is it possible to have the P3 Display the transmitted signal(well as much as is available form the IF)

Yes, hopefully when the "Sensor Input" is activated. That would be the
cat's meow or "cool", for you 60's types.

Not at this time, however the sensor is on the list for a future
option. I do not have any information about when it will be available,
but I would expect it to be sometime soon, there have been several
recent queries about it on the reflector.

We are actively working on the P3 sensor watt-meter and TX envelope display
option right now. We are testing the firmware for it now.

Stay tuned!

Will hardware need to be purchased, or is it already in place on the
rigs?

Re: P3 Feature Request?

David,

Obviously, the sensor would have to be purchased.
I do not know whether additional P3 option boards will be necessary or not.

1. A small sensor input board that plugs into the existing boards on the P3.
2. A RF sensor, similar, but not identical circuitry, to our existing
directional couplers for the W2. (It has a faster time constant to support RF
envelope display.)

In reply to this post by Elecraft mailing list

Fairly obvious that an external sensor will be needed, probably the same (or
similar) sensors to what is used for the W2 wattmeter. Also, since there is
no current corresponding input on the P3, an option board will be required
for that. (Strictly speculation on my part, but fairly obvious to me)
Availability and pricing TBD.

Possibly, with modification to several component values on the board inside, but
I can't guarantee that they will still work with the W2 after modification.

Why obviously? If it were obvious then I would not have asked the
question...

Perhaps they intended to have this feature, and had the sensors built
in?

It would be nice to be able to use the W2's sensors for
those who have bought them....
