K3 Memory

[rfenabled]

Is their any likelihood that all favourite frequencies will be accessible by, for example, rotating B vfo and sequencing thru them as stored memory channels.

If this is available already I must have missed it.

After the last question I asked on the reflector resulted in a large volume of "hate mail" I am not going to ask another one, I have better things to do with my time.

Unless I'm misunderstanding this, this is just the standard memeory  
mechanisum, documented on pg 16 of Owners Manual rev D1.

Set up the rig the way you want it, with freq, mode etc. press V->M,  
turn VFO-A to find an empty memeory, as shown on VFO-B display,  
complete with a number, you can give it a alphanumeric label but  
rotating VFO-B to pick position and VFO-A to pick character. When all  
done, press V->M again.

To use one, press M->V, rotate VFO-A to find the one you want and  
press M->V again.

Dave,

Thank you for the refresher.  While I have read the manual 3 times, I get
into a pattern and when someone asks a question, it helps me "refresh".  The
question was a good one.


73,

Hi Gary,

It is possible and called "Channel hopping" manual pg.40.
Memories should be within 1 band and text-tags should start with a "*".
VFO A than rotates through and monitors those memories right away (without having to push M>V)

I think i'ts a bit cumbersome so I prefer using the bandswitch combined with the 4 quick-memos per band.

It takes the K3 some time to switch all its filter/tuner relais and roofers, so I think it may never be a "fast hopper" (every upside has its downside) but the quick memos are very handy for fast acces to your favourites.

btw "The only stupid question is one that isn't asked" :-)
