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.
