KX1 with 30/80 option - band cycling now limited to 7/10/14

[JONES, George]

I have had this KX1 for a while. This fault was noted (maybe arose)
during a recent garden op. session.
Bands 7/10/20 are all operational & selectable as normal, but 3.5 is skipped completely.

I acquired this little gem ready built & fully working, so am a bit wary of taking it apart.
Before I do, I am wondering if there are any stock faults to look out for ?

It sounds like perhaps the B80 Menu entry has been set to "off".

  George,

Check the menu - Scroll to either the "b30" or "b80" (you will only see
one or the other), if it is "b30" tap the rightmost button to change to
"b30".  Then HOLD the Edit button.  If the parameter is "off", turn the
VFO knob to "On" and tap the MENU button twice to exit.  You should now
have all 4 bands.

That information is in the KXB3080 manual.
