M1-M4

I use M1-M4 on each band as follows:

M1 = CW default frequency (usually the band edge) and BW = 400 Hz

M2 = SSB default freq (i.e. 14.195) and BW = 2.8 KHz

M3 = PSK default freq, Mode = Data A and BW 2 KHz

M4 = RTTY default freq, Mode = AFSK A and BW = 250 HZ.

That's what I would like to do anyway. The problem is, M3 and M4 do not remember the correct BW setting. Regardless what is stored, if I for instance recall M4 (RTTY) after having just stored all of this in sequence, I will get the memorized 250 Hz BW. If I then recall M3, I will have the *same* 250 Hz BW, not the expected 2 KHz BW previously stored in M3.

Apparently, my K3 isn't smart enough to know that Data A and AFSK A are different modes so recalling one or the other recalls the last used BW.

Am I missing something?

Wes,

At present the K3 stores one bandwidth for DATA mode. I'll change this
so it stores a separate bandwidth for each DATA sub-mode.

In reply to this post by wayne burdick

What would be even more exciting is for people who use things this
way.... Why not remember the last frequency you were on in that
segment rather than simply recalling a frequency.... Similar to the
way that memories 0-9 can work as band recalls then M1-M4 could become
segment recalls that actually remember where they were at the time.

Hopefully when doing the segment recall the SCAN feature wouldn't be
broken so that one could still use it to scan a band segment.
