Idea to add DIGITAL VALUES to the SWR and POWER scales
There was an enhancement request to improve the readability of the POWER and SWR scales. The request was to change the color and granularity of the numbers and lines. With the V2.x update this was done and that idea was implemented. The scales are much easier to read now and that idea has been updated and closed.
In the idea discussion, Howard / KY6LA suggested another enhancement would be to add DIGITAL VALUES to the scales.
I made a mockup to illustrate his idea and offered to submit a separate idea to help gauge the interest in this enhancement.

If you would like to see this added please add a vote and your comments.
