I'm a new owner of a K3 and am still learning its operation. At the moment, it's not fully incorporated into my station, but is side-by-side with my Kenwood TS-870 for some comparison/familiarization.
A few minutes ago I was on 80-meter CW listening to JD1BLY working a mini-pileup. He was barely above the noise on 3502, listening up 2. I was A/B switching the two radios. I decided to tune around and come back to him just before my sunrise. I set up the split on both radios, hit "M-IN" on the '870 and "V -> M" and "M4" on the K3 and did some more tuning around.
A bit later while listening on the Kenwood, I hit "MR" and noted that JD1BLY was now S7. I switched the antenna to the K3, pressed "M -> V" and "M4" and gave him a call.
My reply was an S9+20 "L I D", since the fact that I needed to operate "split" wasn't memorized (or recalled---I'm not sure which) and I dropped my call on his frequency.
I've searched the archives and FAQ but still have the question, am I missing something (highly likely), or does the K3 fail to memorize split setups? If so, why?
(I switched back to the '870 and worked him BTW)
Regards,
Wes N7WS
