I've never had any trouble with REF LEVEL, but it can't hurt to try the save / reset / restore routine and see if it helps.

I am seeing something similar to this as well...  Not in SPAN, but in
REF LVL. I set REF LVL while on 30 Meters, and leave the band. Ssometimes when I return to 30, I need to touch the REF LVL level to
get it to return...

By touch, I mean I select REF LVL, then just turn the knob ever so slightly. The P3 then reverts to where it should be...

P3 with SVGA, and power monitor.  Only on 30 meters...  Any
suggestions?

I had a problem in which both SPAN and CENTER changed arbitrarily
(it seemed) on band changes. I finally saved the configuration
using the P3 Utility, reset the P3 to factory parameters (power
off, hold LABELS while powering on, wait for 2 seconds, let go of
LABELS), and finally used the utility to restore the
configuration. The problem hasn't recurred -- it's been a few weeks
and it was pretty much a daily occurrence. YMMV.

Various searches dredged up nothing helpful.  I recently
developed a P3 problem.  The SPAN does not get saved.  Whenever I
change bands to a band I had set it, say, to 50 kHz, the SPAN
resets itself to 5 kHz. Sometimes I can even watch the display as
it cranks down the bandwidth.

This is a P3 *without* SVGA, but *with* TXMon.  It has 1.60
firmware installed and reloaded without effect.  It is not
directly connected to a PC. The transceiver to which it is
connected is a K3S.

P3 SPAN settings:  SpanScale: REF LEVEL ONLY, SteppedSpan:  OFF

I appreciate any pointers to where I should look.  Thanks.
