I'm in the middle of the ARRL VHF contest, with a K3/P3 bandscope on 6M, 
and a vintage TS790A on 2M. I have the P3 set to display 50080 kHz to 
50280 kHz, so if a mouse farts on the band, I see it and can quickly QSY 
to work it. With the TS790A, I'm flying blind, so must continually tune 
around for activity.

I've decided to order an Elecraft 2M transverter for my second K3, just 
for the bandscope! Anyone want a nicely treated TS790A?
