FWIW:  The KX3 shares the same wonky behavior. Plus inconsistent quirks about forgetting "Scale" and "Ref" settings.  Esp after band/mode changes. Supporting and remembering separate settings for:  CW  vs. "voice" widths for "Span" would be a welcome improvement. Bruce  W2SE On 7/18/20 0

This has been discussed several times before Jim.  I haven't taken the time to figure out the exact steps necessary to make it happen [come back to the original band with the center frequency offset] but it seems to be intrinsic to the design of the P3. 73, Fred ["Skip"] K6DGW Sparks NV DM09dn

Alan: Your description may be right on, it may explain why the effect is difficult to reproduce and appears to be "intermittent," sometimes it maintains the center frequency and sometimes it doesn't.  I'll try the FixMode=Static with a controlled set of changes that I know will cause the proble

Jim:  In general, yes, if you change bands with BAND ^/v.  When you change bands via the CAT, the P3 center freq won't always end up where you last had it.  I believe SPAN width is preserved but the span limits show up strange.  It's a known issue, has been discussed at some length here a few m
