It's audible here only if I put my fingers on the P3 screen and find the
most sensitive spot, but it's never strong. It's completely inaudible
without touching the P3's screen.

Disconnected the 2-meter antenna and touched a short wire to the ANT3
connector and it got very loud, suggesting that it's noise being picked up
by the antenna, at least for me. My 2-meter antenna is on the roof about 15
feet above the rig. 

If it's not being picked up by the antenna there must be some other path
into the K144XV perhaps through an open ground between units, etc.

Yes, I do.

Try placing your hand immediately in front of the P3 screen and it will act
as an aerial, making the situation quite a bit worse.

While operating on SSB on 144.225 MHz using the internal K144VX
transverter I am getting broadband noise around that frequency when I
switch on my P3. The noise is quite strong, about S7, and shows clearly
on the P3 screen. If I move the P3 about six inches away from the K3 the
noise disappears.  Removing the 2 metre antenna also removes the noise.

I would be grateful if anyone else with a K144XV and a P3 would check to
see if they get the same problem?

Many thanks
