What I have noticed is that in fixed mode when you set Center/Span by a
macro, the change is not permanent and will be lost on a band change or
power cycle. But when you change either of those with the knobs, the
change will be remembered.
I use macros sent from DXLabs Commander program to set and reset a
"pileup mode" in which the dx station is moved near the left edge of the
screen and the span is reduced. If I go to another band the P3 will go
back to 'normal' state. If I know I am going to be doing this I will
manually change the parameters slightly back and forth in order to force
them to be saved.
Since I can easily send the macro to enter the special mode or reset
everything to normal, this hasn't been a problem for me.

It annoys me too. I haven't yet figured out exactly what it is doing
and what causes it and it seems like it isn't always repeatable. What I
really want is for the P3 to maintain the SPAN setting and CENTER that I
manually set for each band. I run 20 KHz spans on CW on most bands [30
m is at 50 KHz], and if I place the span on even 20 KHz boundaries [e.g.
14020-14040, I'd like that to be maintained with freq/band changes.

This behavior bothers me too. It appears that if you issue a frequency
command directly to the K3 the P3 will always reset its span limits.
For some reason, issuing only a band change command doesn't cause the
reset. It's probably a "feature" but it's one I'd also like to see
modified.
