DM780 has the center function and it works fine so I dont miss any
manual shift functions.

I have defined the following two macros:

   #++
   #   Center & narrow macro
   #   {{RADIO-CONTROL
   #
   #   This macro only contains commands for tuning your radio.
   #   The text is not added to the input (TX) window.
   #
   #--

   center-on 1500

   Set slider-pos K3 Filter~Width 30    //  Filter Width = 300Hz

   #++
   #   Wide macro
   #   {{RADIO-CONTROL
   #
   #   This macro only contains commands for tuning your radio.
   #   The text is not added to the input (TX) window.
   #
   #--

   Set slider-pos K3 Filter~Width 400    //  Filter Width = 4000Hz

I have set the 250Hz filter to kick in at 300Hz.
