Gary, The "Sensor": input on the rear of th P3 is there for that purpose....however, the device has not been announced by Elecraft to date despite repeated requests.....
I too really do want to be able to monitor my TX signal, one of the disadvantages I have is that I operate "Portable" from my Motorhome 24/7 and as you can imagine, this constant changing of the station setup leads to mistakes or oopsies when setting up..:-) I also beg Elecraft to listen to our pleas.... 73 Gary On 10 April 2014 09:19, Gary Ferdinand <[email protected]> wrote: > Dear Elecraft, > > We are in critical need of a device that will allow us to monitor our > *actual* transmitted signal.
