After many years in the test and measurement world using LabView I've been attempting to bring the K3 to a GUI interface that would also offer a spectrum display. I have used waterfall spectral analysis and find the third dimension of a signal displayed to be useful for small signal reception in the low band DX activity.
Nice use of hardware and software. N4PY is a solid programmer. Sorry I saw the Lilliput, though. Now I have to have one :). How did you get PowerSDR-IQ to only show the spectrum screen? What version is it?
When you set up the second Lilliput monitor use Windows Display Properties > Settings> and position the second monitor at (1024, 136). Then re-sized the PowerSDR (any version) in the main monitor and drag it to the Lilliput so that just the panadapter screen shows.
Great run-thru of the setup - thanks.

Nice demo! I'm going to try this.
