Hi Karl,

The jumper must be routed as indicated in the instructions to avoid  
possible noise pickup on the synthesizer output trace.

Hi Wayne & the list,

having skimmed the various mails after the sneak preview and  
slobbering all over THE picture... ;-)

I've an idea for feature, which I've always kind of missed, and while  
it is not very realistic from an organisational point of view, but  
Elecraft has worked wonders in the past.


I would love to see an integration of three things in one single display:

- The real time spectrum

- Imposed upon it, DX-cluster spotting information

- Bandmap, worked stations, multiplier, etc. information from the  
logging software (Win-Test in my case), imposed upon both of the above.


Maybe sometime in the distant future, this could at least be partially  
implemented.

Also it might be cool to add an interface (Ethernet?) for providing  
the spectrum information as semi-raw data and/or graphics to external  
devices.

PS: When will Elecraft start accepting orders?

I would love to see the PSK31 signals all be decoded on the spectrum, like
the SuperBrowser in DM780. Maybe a larger screen, the picture has the
screen looking rather small.

the experance in using them. I will say thank you for your help.
