We've been talking about Panadaptors -- especially about NON-DIGITAL Panadaptors. Kind of like waterfalls without the digital water. A while back I rigged up a very crude non-SDR panadaptor using my Feeltech sign generator, my Rigol 'scope and a DITX40. Here it is: https://soldersmoke.blogspot.com/2019/05/diy-waterfall-quick-and-easy-panadaptor.html In the above video Mr. Carlson looks at the old PCA-2T-200 Panadaptor. The first five minutes give a really good overview of how the device operates. At around the 5 minute mark Mr. Carlson notes that modern digital receivers have SDR based waterfall displays, but noted (correctly!) that "that's no fun!" Thank you Mr. Carlson.
