[Elecraft] [P3] and HRD

I notice, as others have comented a couple of second delay until HRD
catches up with things like frequency displayed, etc.  Not really a
problem for me.

But what is a bit annoying if working digital modes (such as PSK),
pressing send on HRD, there can be several second delay before the K3
responds.  Sometimes I need to press the send button 2X.  In casual
ragchewing I don't find it more than a minor problem, but am wondering
how it will be in contesting when things are hot and heavy.

I have not tried Winlink Pactor 3 yet, and this delay may be big
problem as the turn around time is very fast.  If I simply turn off
the P3 will the delay go away?

BTW, I am really loving this panadaptor when looking for DX.  I've
noticed that it's possible to pick out 2 SSB siganls nearly on top of
each other.  Then separate out the desired signal with the K3s
filtering.  I'm hearing signals now that I might have skipped over
before.
