Just I don't have the time in this moment. The program you propose, while conceptually simple, will need some time to be implemented properly, especially if the graphical aspect has to be elegant (i.e. a radar-like round window, with a vector starting from the center, whose modulus indicates the log-magnitude, and the angle indicating the istantaneous phase, maybe leaving traces of the past positions). But, if nobody else volunteers, I can put it on my to-do log for the second half of this year (or maybe earlier, but I cannot commit just now). 73 Alberto I2PHD
