Cady, Fred-2
In a way you can.  Once you have selected an antenna for a particular band, when you return to that band it will automatically be selected.

Cheers,

If you have more than one antenna for a band (I did before we moved),
the KAT500 Utility allows you to enable them for a particular band and
choose which will be the default when the K3 goes to that band.  If you
want the other(s), you press the ANT button on the KA%500, and it will
cycle through the 3 antenna connectors that are enabled for that band.
I don't know of any other way to do that from the K3.
