P3 question: setting current frequency at center of display

[K2PO]

Is there a faster way to put the current frequency at the center of the
display, than pressing CENTER, and twirling the knob?

 

Thanks,

 

/Bill, K2PO

Press CENTER a second time without any intervening action.

Hi Bill & Gus,

Toggling between Fixed Tune and Tracking modes also centers the cursor. Toggling twice brings you back to the mode you were first in. I set up the F4 button to accomplish this toggle. So a quick double press of F4 gets me centered.

There was a side benefit. I normally leave my P3 in Ref Lvl mode. If I press Center twice it takes me out of Ref Lvl mode. By pressing F4 twice as I described above the P3 stays in Ref Lvl mode.
