While I agree with the need for a better zero-beat QSY function (I'm spoiled
by Skimmer's decoder dots), you should be able to come much closer than +/-
100-200 Hz.  Have you checked both your K3's Ref Cal (do that first) and the
P3's Ref Cal procedure?  Using a 100 Hz BW (i.e. +/- 50 Hz) in the K3, I can
consistently hear QSY signals inside the 100 Hz passband.
