band switching

[Karl Ahamer]

Hi all,

I sometimes listen outside the ham bands to some broadcast station.

Let's say on 13.500Mhz and then go to another ham band and then want to came
back to the 20m band.Using the up/down controls it will come up with
13.500Mhz (the frequency used last on this band)so I have to tune all the
way up to 14Mhz to be get back on the ham band.Is there a feature within the
K3 menu which would make the K3 come back to the last used ham frequency on
this band, rather than  to the last used?

Karl,

No, but Direct Frequency Entry will put you on any frequency you want.

You might set up a frequency memory for somewhere in each of the ham bands
and recall that memory. Some people assign a "quick" memory to each band.

I use the quick memories, M1 - M2, and have a CW and SSB start frequency
as recommended in the "Owner's Manual" on page 16
