The way IF SHIFT controls have worked on radios for decades now has been that, 
as you turn in one direction away from the center knob position, you are both 
narrowing the bandwidth *and* shifting the apparent center frequency (what the 
K3 calls "FC"). Since the K3 has separate controls for WIDTH and SHIFT this is 
not easily done without having to adjust two controls.

A workaround (to return to the old way of thinking about IF SHIFT) is to set up 
macros that give you the desired WIDTH and FC with one button push. In this way 
you can emulate, for example, what the K2 does with its four pre-set filter 
settings per mode.
