Thanks Alan -

I'm still at sea about the span. With the A cursor at the left edge of the screen reading 14.022.5 the span icon on the right shows a +5. If I tune higher with B or B marker, I hit 14.027.5 a little to the right of the physical center of the screen. 

So is there a way to have that almost full screen from the A cursor on the left edge to the right side of the screen cover 5 KHz? It sure would make it easier to find the sweet spot in the pileup.
 
73, Mike NF4L
