Yaesu FTDX101D FTDX10 Scope averaging solution

Before we start, anyone using the 3D feature of the above radios are beyond help, please just move along and continue to enjoy your radio.

For those who are sentient enough to realise 3D is just a gimmick and 2D is the only real display function, please read on... 

Problem:

Frenetic spectrum-scope? Can't cope?

Solution:

Dead easy! Use the waterfall rather than the spectrum-scope. Tap the waterfall until it covers 3/4 of the screen. The spectrum-scope is now too small to see any frenetic activity, job done!

I now think of this top sliver of LCD panel as a touchscreen for QSY only. There is absolutely nothing gained by looking at the spectrum-scope that isn't reproduced on the waterfall.

Now think of the benefits of having the fastest, most capable, most sensitive waterfall ever produced by the big three!
