You're missing a LOT by not using Fixed Tune and Averaging. Averaging 
greatly reduces the noise, and Fixed Tune is needed so that averaging 
continues to work as you tune the main VFO (the average resets when you 
tune). I use maximum averaging of the top display, no averaging of the 
waterfall. This will bring out signals that are easy to miss without 
averaging.

Like you, I use narrow spans to work a pileup.
