P3 Cursor Position Incorrect After Band change...

Phil Hystad-3
On my P3, I notice that the little cyan cursor location does not align itself properly during a band change that also involves a mode change.  For example, switching from 17 Meter band with USB to 20 Meter band with CW leaves the cursor aligned to the right of the center position as it would be for USB but not as it should be for the CW signal.  All IF shift controls are in their normal position.  Indeed, a power off and power on cycle of the P3 resets the cursor location to be correct.

I figure if a power-off/power-on fixes a problem then there probably is a problem.

Anyone else seen this same thing?  If it is unique to my P3 maybe I have a very special P3 that might be worth a lot of money (sort of like an old stamp with a flaw in it).

Re: P3 Cursor Position Incorrect After Band change...

I have noticed the cyan cursor has gotten out of sync on rare occasions, a
mode change always corrected it.
I cant replicate your sequence of band change, mode change, etc.  It works
fine here every time..
