Re: LF: 17 or 19 or 21 inch?

Hi Stefan,

 

small is beautiful - I'd say please leave it as it is! Especially when I'm outdoors with the little netbook, I just hate having to scroll around laterally to see the latest pixels appear on the right side...  

With regard to the scaling, I generally favour one pixel per FFT, and relatively slow scrolling (ie around 70% FFT overlap).

Best 73,

Markus (DF6NM)

Betreff: LF: 17 or 19 or 21 inch?

LF, VLF,

Would like to hear some opinions about the best width of a grabber 
window. Currently all my windows are optimised for a xxx*1024 pixel 
monitor. This is suitable for the most monitors. But since many years 
the standard seems to be 19 inch or even more. Furthermore the 16:9 
format becomes normality.
I think about extending the window sizes of the grabber captures to a 19 
inch format, like G4WGT runs them. This may be a bit nerving if a 
smaller monitor is used but allows a better overview on the wide screens.

What do you think is the best width of the windows?
