K3 P3 IF connection question

Dave G3WGN M6O
I have recently moved QTH and am now setting up my Elecraft radios in the new
shack - in exactly the same configuration as at the previous QTH.  No
hardware changes, no firmware upgrades, same cable set.
Everything is working fine with the K3/P3/KPA500/KAT500 combination, with
one exception:
The signals displayed on the P3 rarely exceed S1 on the scale even when the
K3 S meter shows S9+.
I have replaced the BNC - BNC cable connecting the K3 IF out with the P3
input.  No change in signal level.

Is there a simple way to check the K3 IF output for correct operation so
that I can home in on whether the issue is at the K3 or P3 end of the
connection?
Any pointers much appreciated!
