[Elecraft] P3 CW Decoding doesn't match K3

I believe the P3SVGA only reproduces whatever characters are on the VFO B display. The P3SVGA does not separately decode the CW. If you are not getting faithful copy of VFO B on the K3 to the P3, something is amiss in the station setup.
Try disconnecting anything else from the P3/K3 combo that is connected to any of the data ports on the K3 or P3 and see if that clears it up.
You can easily test the transfer by recording a data mode message at the K3 and playing it back with the K3 in TEST mode so you aren't transmitting. You should have perfect copy on the P3SVGA monitor.

While copying the ARRL 20M CW broadcast I noticed that the decoding on the K3 is quite accurate as long as the signal does not fade. But while the K3 is decoding very well, the data display of cw text on the bottom of the SVGA display is no whereas close to the accuracy of the K3. Anyone else encountered this? I don't see any applicable options in the SVGA menu on the P3 menu.
