Mr. Carlson's Analog Panadaptor -- "Like a digital waterfall, but fun!"
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:

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.
