P3/K3 Question about S meter readings...

[NK7Z]

Hello,
I have a K3, and a P3.  I have both, and a question regarding S meter
readings on each.

Using the P3, in peak hold mode, I see the highest peak at S6, while at
the same time I see a steady S8 to S9 on the K3 itself.

I assume that the two ought to match, or at least be close...  Is this
assumption correct?  If so, how do I get them to match?

On CW they should match but not on SSB.  The explanation is in the
Owner's Manual in the "How to Set Up and Interpret the P3 Display"
section under "Spectrum Display", second column.
