I would guess you just record again and it replaces it?

According to my many exchanges with Wayne, the ability to completely (that is clear) M1-M4 is “on the list.”  Right now, all you can do is replace (overwrite) what you already put into that M1 – M4 specific memory.  I’ve replaced a few of them with a single “dit” but really would like to be able to clear them completely like you can easily do with the “other” memories.

 

As I’ve noted to Wayne, once the Digital Voice Recorder gets released, I suspect the ability to completely clear M1-M4 will become a hot item.  ‘73 es gud dxing – Don N4HH  K3/100/KRX3 #83

Excuss my ignorance, but why do you need to complete clear it?

I guess my thickness is showing again.
Somebody pse explain why a blank memory is a good thing.
I'd think you'd just not push the button.

Unfortunately some of us are not perfect and push the button accidentally, or at the wrong time. These buttons can be used as per-band quick memories as well. It's embarrassing to send some CW message that you programmed in six months ago to try the memories out when all you wanted to do was change frequency.

And therein lies the crux of the problem... if you happen to mis-press
the wrong button, as can happen in the heat of battle, all of a sudden
your K3 is sending the WRONG message... to be able to completely clear
a memory means that it's much more difficult (though probably still not
completely impossible for the likes of me) to 'fat-finger' the message
buttons and to send the wrong message.
