K3 questioin
Locked
 
|
I'm planning on running the Minnesota QSO party with one of my K3s in the
car. Would appreciate any and all QSO's--see W0AA.org for information on the contest--just Saturday, Feb 2, 8 a.m. CST to 6 p.m. CST. My question is that I can't figure out why, when I tap up band or down band, I can't get 40 meters! It goes from 30 meters to 20 meters both directions without stopping at 40! I usually don't use these buttons but with my old lap top, I need to. Of course I can key in the frequency, and usually can type it in to the logging program, but for some reason that doesn't work with my old dos laptop running NA. Any suggestions?

John,
I think you mean it goes from 60M to 30M without stopping at 40. If that's what you meant to type, then I bet the config menu item BND MAP has 40 inadvertently included. 73, Jim N7US -----Original Message----- I'm planning on running the Minnesota QSO party with one of my K3s in the car.

Problem solved--old manual without the notation for bnd map of band
controls. Sorry for band width, and thanks to W9RE and K9TM.
