Do you have the P3 in Tracking or Fixed mode?

This makes it all but impossible to visually tune to a weak CW signal by just watching the VGA pan display as you tune the VFO.  Each time I stop tuning the pan display jumps back up to the -120 dbm reference line and all the weak signals once again appear in the pan display.  This does not happen on the small screen pan display.  Is there a separate menu adjustment that prevents the VGA pan display level from dropping -15 dbm when the either receive VFO is tuned?  I just know I have something set up wrong in the menu system.
