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 problem in Full Screen mode.

I'm out of town right now so I can't test this out. But when it came
up before, as I recall the problem turned out to be as Tom says, some
software programs send frequency and band commands in an order that
causes the P3 to temporarily be tuned outside the span window.
Normally, the P3 tries to keep the VFO A frequency within the span, so
when the "wrong" frequency appears, the P3 re-tunes itself. When the
frequency returns to the correct value, the P3 retunes again to put
that frequency somewheree within the span, using rules determined by
the MENU FixMode selection.
A think a workaround for this is to set FixMode to "Static". As I say,
I am not able to test that right now since I'm out of town, but I
think that will force the frequency range to be corrrect even after a
software-initiated band change.
