K3 Factory Reset?

AK4IK_Ian
All,

 

I recently acquired K3/100 s/n 281 from its previous, original, owner.  I
would like to perform a reset to factory defaults so I can later set it up
for my own operating preferences.  I can't find any reference in the latest
K3 owner's manual on how to do this.  Can anyone provide any guidance on
this effort?

 

Thanks and 73,

 

Ian Kahn, AK4IK

Roswell, GA

K3 #281, P3 #633

If you simply want to restore default CONFIG menu settings without doing a full recalibration, tap DISP (to the upper left of the LCD) while in each CONFIG menu, and you'll see the default setting appear momentarily in the VFO B display.

If it were me I would do EE INIT and a complete recalibration, but you should review the Calibration section of the manual first so you know what you're getting into.  I'd also check to see which hardware updates have been performed since #281 is a fairly old unit and I'm guessing a dozen updates would apply.
