For #1 there are a couple of things a) in menu set one of the function
buttons to "knob tap" and "knob hold" the select knob takes more
pressure so using one of the function buttons is much less force. b) I
have my K3s and P3 mounted to a single board, I put the bails down and
then built a couple of simple clamps to clamp the bails to the board,
makes the K3s/P3 combo a single unit not only keeps the P3 fixed but
also simplifies cabling so they act as one unit when needing to move
around. Kinda like having a large K4 :)
#2 go into the menu and turn the Noise Blanker on "NB En", you may have
to experiment with the NB Level (I set mine on 5) depending on your own
conditions.

I recently obtained a P3 and I'm and exceedingly happy! Now that I own it I
feel bad that I wasted a few years trying other solutions that introduced
noise and undue complexity into my station.
Just a few notes and questions because the manual is helpful but I don't
fully understand what I'm reading yet.
1. When using QSY the P3 unit often slides. How do most of you prevent
the unit from sliding?
2. The signal/noise floor jumps a lot and I'm not sure if that's due to
local interference or something in my setup. Based on reading I likely need
to noise troubleshoot/filter my station. I don't see an AGC setting for the
P3. Any suggestions?
3. What serial number requires the mod? My serial is 3251
4. I need a serial port screw stud - can I buy that from Elecraft when
I purchase a cable + vga card?
5. Is there a quick setup cheat-sheet anyone has for the P3?
Thanks in advance
