One other thing that I hadn't run across but was called to my attention - The averaging mode must be set to 2 as well as having a high refresh rate or the trace will be jerky when you tune the K3. This stands to reason. No matter what the refresh rate for the P3's screen, if the signals are being averaged by the P3, the average timing must be completed before the display can update.
I don't use averaging mode much so hadn't noticed that one yet. Hope this helps those with "jerky" tuning displays.
