[Elecraft] Bought a second hand P3 with 2 KW TX sensor question

The 2kW monitor works pretty well at 100 watts.  The 200W sensor might 
have a little better accuracy at 100W and works much better for QRP.

If by "images" you mean seeing the same signal on either side of center 
of the pandapter display, that doesn't happen with the P3.  Unlike SDR 
receivers and panadapters that use an analog I/Q downconverter, the 
digital downconverter in the P3 is "perfect" in that respect.
