I really dislike the green color of the VFO A marker, it just does not look very good on an otherwise beautiful screen.  Bring back the light blue.  Back to 1.05 for me for now.

How to please everybody. As there will always be differences of opinion
on colours, allow the user to choose their preferences and save them.
Possibly allow for more than one configuration and there should be no
further complaints?

Re: p3 beta upgrade

Stephen G4SJP
As I have already told Alan N1AL directly, I think this new alpha is
brilliant.  Yes, it would be nice to have control over the palette but that
will surely come with time, and perhaps via an expanded P3 utility program.
 I would also like to see (optional) control of the menu from the P3 utility
as I am forever pushing buttons in the wrong order and wiping out what I
have set the function buttons to!  Nothing however, should detract from the
principle that the P3 is intrinsically computer independent.

What I like best in 1.08 is the red tx marker which appears as soon as split
(or RIT/XIT) is implemented without having to command the P3 to display
VFOb.  That, in itself, is enough to make me delay the purchase of the
second RX (and the KX3 has something to do with that decision too!).

Once the VGA output is there in hardware, the display will, I think, be
awesome.  I would hope to see those holes in the back panel begin to fill
sometime soon!

Like the changes. Maybe the next release will display frequency Delta between the markers...

Nice feature, and I like the use of shaded bars to display the RX
passband as well as the bright line for the TX frequency (or suppressed
carrier frequency, as applicable).

One small point while we're still in beta: when the VFOB/TX bar is tuned
away off-screen, the arrow markers do not appear until the entire shaded
passband has gone. It would be better if the arrow markers came on as
soon as the bright TX line has disappeared, because the remaining part
of the shaded passband bar can be quite difficult to see (even at 100%
LCD brightness).

OH, Thank You, Thank You for the cursor in "Fixed" tune mode.  This is truly
awesome.

As for the color, I like the green, not sure I'd like the old CYAN for this.
The green does show nicely through the "Peak ON" display.
