Help with K1

Paul Gates, KD3JF
I need help with my K1. I did not realize that my
30 meter band was set up for 10.0 instead of
10.1. I checked the manual and it says:

To select B1 or B2 and hold display button and
select 10.0 or 10.1.

That does not seemingly work for me. When I hold
display button nothing happens so I do not see
the option of selecting 10.1.

Any help will be appreciated. I have been using
the KX1 on 30 and did not realize I could not
tune to 10.119 on the K1.

You will have to do one of two things:
Obviously your K1 is setup for 80 khz of VFO range.

You will have to set it up for 150 khz. of VFO range....OR.....change the band crystal.
If you assembled it yourself, you should have a "spare" crystal for the 30 meter band to do that.
It will then tune from 10.1 to about 10.180 instead of 10.0-10.080 mhz.

Just to clarify: When it says select 10.0 or 10.1 it makes it sound like
you'll see both and you pick the one you want. The reality is you'll see
EITHER 10.0 or 10.1, depending on how you built the filter board.

The previous post was correct that you'll need to swap in the other crystal
to get 10.000-10.080.
