Using the P3 in the RTTY contest this weekend, I was losing the marker in
the upper display and wonder if the "tails" on the marker could be extended
DOWN into the waterfall area as it is a relatively stable display and it
would be much easier to tune the K3 signal to the marker. The marker will
be right "on" the signal in the waterfall instead of half a screen away from
the peaks you are trying to align to. If we cannot place the markers in the
waterfall area, maybe a tiny gap area could be configured at the bottom of
the signal display area for the markers (or just the tails) if used.
The P3 is a huge advantage to Search and pounce tuning. I can now leave the
bandwidth set at the width of the RTTY signal and tune it in using only the
P3. Previously I was cranking the width wide and tuning slowly and then
narrow to work the station. Much concern about breaking the knob in the
heat of battle. Now I used the span set at about 4k and it was easy to tune
every signal and can see where the signal was even if it has stopped during
your tune time and set by the waterfall (and possibly touch up when he comes
back). I got very good at it quickly.
