KX1 3080 - no 80m

Tod Glenn
Help.  I just installed the 3080 module in my KX1 and I only get 30m  
- no 80.  I have firmware version 1.02, but when i cycle through band  
selection, I never see 80m.  Any suggestions?

Tod:

1.  Tap the "MENU" button and rotate the freq knob until "b30" appears.
2.  Tap the RIT button and "b80" will appear.
3.  Hold down the Menu button to enter the edit process and the display will
show "OFF".
4.  Turn the frequency knob to select "ON".
5.  Tap the "MENU" button again to exit the menu program.

Tapping the RIT button in the "b" menu toggles it between 30 and 80 meters.
I just ran into this myself yesterday as I was upgrading a KX1 that I built
for KA3BLD.

Tod ... I had the same problem so I went back and read the book again.  The
30 and 80 meter bands have to be turned on in the set-up before it will show
up as a selectable band.  The 80 meter activation is the last sentence in
Step 1 of the Revision 1.02 Firmware new features.

I missed that last sentence my first time through.

Hopefully this will help you out.
