K2 - K160RX Alignment

Mark RAYBOULD
K2 #5565, KAT2, KAF2, and just added K160RX.  Page 9 of K160RX Manual -
3rd action fails with an error of INFO232 - 'CAL PLL on wrong band',
even though I re-checked that VFO displays 1800.10 as directed.  I also
checked these actions against my other K2 #5459 with the same result.  I
must have overlooked some thing.  Any pointers and many thanks.

73, Mark,  G3XYS

Mark,

You are correct that you overlooked something.  The Errata sheet!  If you
read it, it will tell you that there is no need to perform CAL PLL on 160
meters.

It used to be that CAL PLL was done on each band (like when the K160RX
manual was last updated), but it disappeared long ago. CAL PLL need only be
done once and 40 meters must be selected to do it.

73,
