I currently have a 23" monitor on my desk which fits perfectly between 2 desktop shelf units.  Given the recent proliferation of larger monitors, including the ultra-wides (34" or so), I am consideri

I run a trio of 10 year old 28" monitors here and one of them died a final death this summer. A monitor is very important to me because I like a crisp big screen which is not fatiguing after long hou

I've standardized on 23-24-in monitors for two reasons. 1) They fit in the available space -- I have one on each P3 and another as expansion for the shack laptop.  2) They run on the 12V system that

I agree, you can't make magic with monitors if you have a fundamental sight issue. In the general case, to fully take advantage of the realestate a big screen offers (or multiple screens provide), yo

My 2 cents' worth: I use two 29 inch 21:9 monitors in my shack. The monitor size was selected because of the available space on my desk (gap between shelf above transceivers and hutch above). A small

Barry - When I replaced my shack PC 6 or 7 years ago, I looked at my preferred N1MM screen setup (and my DXLabs screens for day to day operating), preferred monitor position, etc. and went with a 24"

I updated a computer that was using a 30 inch monitor to a much faster machine and a 32 inch monitor. It's an HP Pavilion QHD, resolution 2560 x 1440 which is just fine for reading the logging screen

After all these replies, I can understand why N1MM+ asks for so much room in my screen. Everyone seems to use a huge (for me) monitor! I don't use n1mm exactly for this reason. It considers that I ha

Thanks for all the opinions. I was originally thinking of a 27" monitor (Dell U2717D), then one responder mentioned an Asus 32" monitor.  While that looked good on "paper," it's just too big for my d

One thing to realize is that the monitor world is changing. We are now moving from 1920 by 1040 screen size (and larger) to 4K (double the width and height). The computer usually sets this up as a st

Hi Kostas, Have you looked at the Skins and Fonts tab on the Config Tab?  The size of the main entry window is set by the various font sizes, and that ripples down to most other windows. Also, all wi

This is an interesting thread to see what others have chosen for their display systems. Regarding N1MM+ taking a lot of screen real estate when running RTTY, some space can be saved by turning off th
