Ok I read the manual and I have been unable to program the m1-m4 keys or the
0-9 keys.  I can program a normal memory just fine.  

Is there a menu setting that I am missing or did I have to do something in
the K3 utility program to get this to work?

Gee Mike,

I've asked a few similar questions out here that I had'nt understood and a FEW USERS had been very
RUDE calling me "stupid" in essence! So if you're up to the ocassional verbal ridicule by a few
like DON then
go for it!  But again only a few out here are REALLY THAT SHALLOW!!!

Mike,

The 0 - 9 buttons are 'quick memories' and are the same as normal
memories 0 thru 9.
If you have data stored in the normal memories 0-9, then tapping M>V
followed by a tap of the appropriate button should retrieve the memory
contents.

If you want the 0-9 buttons to act like 'band select' buttons, then set
the CONFIG: MEM 0-9 menu to BAND SEL and once settings are stored for
any frequency in a band, those memories will return to the last used
frequency, mode, antenna selection, filter selection on that band.

You can also use the 0-9 buttons to store those memories.  Set up VFO A
and VFO B each with their modes and other settings.  Then tap V>M
followed by a tap to one of the 0-9 buttons.  To retrieve, tap M>V
folowed by a tap to one of the keypad 0-9 buttons.


The M1-M4 buttons are similar, but are PER BAND.  That means you must
select the band first.  Then you may store or retrieve the memory
contents for each of the 4 buttons.  Tap V>M, then tap the M1-M4 button
to store.  Tap M>V followed by one of the M1-M4 button to retrieve.

To all who responded thanks!

I was missing the M to V step.  For some reason I thought you just hit the
M1 or M2 key and it would pull the memory.  

I have not tried it since all the replies but I am sure that will fix it.

Thanks again.
