That should have been "VFO band span".

I like the 180 kHz span option because:
(1) There is still a fair amount of Morse activity in North America on
    40m that would be above the 7085 kHz upper limitation of the narrow
    VFO span option.
(2) It allows overlap into the LSB-phone portion of the band.  The K1
    receives in LSB mode, so there is potential for cross-mode contacts.
(3) It allows coverage on 30m to extend below 10000 kHz for WWV.
