On a steady carrier (i.e. from a signal generator), both the P3 and K3 should read the same. My P3 reads much lower on actual signals than the K3, it is especially noticeable on SSB signals. Calibrating on a signal generator doesn't alter the lower reading of a P3 display on SSB signals. The peak reading facility of the P3 goes some way to overcome the lower reading but has an infinite decay... if it had an adjustable decay (or better still the normal display had a peak/decay setting) then the display would be far more useful.
