basic characteristics (mode, DSP settings, etc.) as the active Slice Receiver, or with the characteristics
of the Slice Receiver closest to the center of the Panadapter.
When you have utilized all your available Slice Receiver resources, the Add Slice Receiver button will
be dimmed indicating that the action is no longer available. It will return to an available state once
a Slice Receiver is closed.
If your cursor is already in the position in the display where you would like to create a receiver, you
may right-click the Panadapter revealing a pop-up menu which will allow creation of a Slice Receiver

When a Slice Receiver is within the bounds of a Panadapter, the Close Button will remove the slice
