Of those two choices, the KRX3.  You ears will help you find the station
he's working...the P3 will not.  The ultimate solution is to add CW Skimmer
using LP-PAN in SPLIT with VFO A TX the pileup and VFO B RX the DX station. 
Watch for the most recent red decoder dot that shows "599" and click it. 
VFO A is then zero beat on the last station worked.  With the large
PJ2/4/6/7 pileups in October, this was almost like cheating.

See the bottom screen below and note the red dot and 599 by W6XA on 7010.4:
