I'd prefer it per mode. My presets are:
10 kHz - CW
20 kHz - CW/data
50 kHz - Phone
100 kHz - Phone
I usually operate CW. Switching to phone means I have to mash (that's
what we do to buttons in the South ;) ) a button to get a good span.

We're considering per-mode as well, but at the moment we're experimenting with
per-band. Input welcome.

Would it make more sense for it to be per-mode rather than per-band? For
example, I can imagine on CW you might want to zoom in more than on SSB. Maybe
some P3 owners can comment?

We just added per-band SPAN settings to the PX3 (and will later add it to the
P3). We're also adding a menu setting to quantize the SPAN selections to 2, 5,
10, 20, 50, 100, and 200 kHz. This behavior would be user-selectable; the
default would be continuously variable, as it is at present.
For a lot of P3/PX3 users, the combination of these two changes will result in
less manipulation of the SPAN control, and will save some Fn switches for other
uses.

I'm still working at what the ideal span on my P3 would be, in the NAQP SSB
yesterday, I had it at 100 KHz and it seemed pretty good.
I have five of the function keys programmed for different span settings. The
other three are Peak Toggle, Fixed Mode Toggle, and Noise Blanker Toggle.
I use 2 kHz for looking at the quality of CW signals, 10 kHz for most CW
pileups, 50 kHz, 100 kHz, and 200 kHz for contesting and general operating. I
did have 20 kHz programmed, but gave that up for the NB toggle.
Before each contest, I'll run through all the bands and set up the span and
centering. 50/60 kHz is pretty good for Sprints and state QSO parties, 100 kHz
is good for most CW contests, 200 kHz is not wide enough for some SSB contests.
For 6M, I set a 200 kHz span from 50.080 to 50.280. This lets me see CW, SSB,
and JT65.
