Kev,

Do you have FlDigi set to produce audio tones in SSB mode for CW or is 
it keying the K3 directly?
That will make a significant difference, and the P3 signal placement 
will reflect that.

We did not consider that you were using a software application to 
produce CW previously to this post.
Know what your software application is doing and you may have the answer 
to your question.
