Hi Hisashi,

>From the photo is looks like you have your REF LVL set too high. The base
signal (noise level) should be slightly below the dividing line between the
upper display and the waterfall. Press the REF LVL button and turn the
SELECT knob counterclockwise until the noise level just disappears. 

The REF LVL will need to be changed from band to band but the P3 remembers
the setting on each band. Of course the level also changes with atmospheric
conditions, time of day, antenna direction, etc..

73,
Mike K2MK
