I remember slowing it down when I first got my P3 but with it currently 
sitting on the shelf, I can't go experiment.  I went to Fixed-Tune, and 
set up several spans in the buttons.  I set the averaging to max on the 
spectrum display and min on the WF, and I run the monochrome WF option. 
  Other than those, I find the Elecraft factory options tend to work 
very well.

I think one complication is that the SVGA option complicates the 
operation a little and there are things that work in the P3 display but 
not in the SVGA and vice versa.

73,
