[Elecraft] P3 Macro question

[Bill Frantz]

With this facility, I would consider using a micro controller to implement two functions:

  P3 for split mode: Read VFOs A and B. Set center and span so A
  and B VFOs are on opposite sides of the display. To use, tune
  in the DX on A and put B just above the pileup. Press the
  button.

  P3 for band scanning: Band edge aware setup for fixed spans,
  e.g. 50KHz, 100KHz 200KHz. Read VFO A. Set span to the fixed
  span. Set the center so the VFO is near the center of the
  display and the lower edge is a multiple of half the span above
  the bottom edge of the band.
