PX3 for locating ft8 interference?

I've been using a kx3 to play with ft8. Finding intermittent severe
QRM is rendering it deaf to due desense. (Signals that are coming in
at -5 disappear from the waterfall when the source fires.)

The waterfall in WSJT-X is only really useful for a few kHz of view,
and I suspect that if the interference is notchable, it is outside
that passband.

Would the PX3 still give a full 200kHz of view to help with (maybe)
adding a notch useful for being able to then hear ft8?

I do have RTL-SDR, and Kerberos SDR, but haven't set them up for fear
of blowing out the front end when transmitting, haven't found an
equivalent to the MFJ autosensing TR switch that is solid state and
can withstand 100w of transmit.

Thanks in advance,
