The TT Omni VII has just such a crude, but useful band scope... ;-)
OR... run N4PY software and get one that works really swell, plus the
N4PY program is good at brokering rig frequency, band, mode, etc., data
to other programs and to shack accessories like auto tuners.
I have played with several SDRs and panadapter rigs/programs, and oddly
enough... the N4PY band scope is extremely simple, clear, and you can
easily and quickly tune to a station "blip" using it. I rather prefer
using his band scope to most of the SDR and panadapter screen
programs. My only wish is for Carl to allow us to resize that window,
in the same way as we can re-size the main radio control window - It can
maintain the same resolution, but it would be really slick we could make
it bigger on the computer screen. Hey Carl ... It's a new year...
maybe this year...? Uh... maybe...? ;-)
Anyway, the point is you can get a fairly good band scope for your
existing rig this way, and other useful functionality as well.

Used to have an Icom that had a crude but in some ways helpful
bandscope and got used to having it.
