Originally, IF shift was defined as moving one IF passband within another IF 
passband, making the resulting passband the intersection (not the union) of the 
two passbands.

When  you do that, you effectively reduce the width *and* the center frequency 
of the IF passband... it has nothing to do with manufacturers failing to make 
it work correctly.

Take two pieces of paper and cut a square in each. Hold them up to a window, 
and slide one square horizontally across the other one, and note how the width 
*and* center of the opening shifts left or right. This is what I mean when I 
say, "IF shift". We might be talking about two different things.
