The reason for this observed behavior is described in section 8
("Operation") in the K2 manual.See page 91 under "Frequency and Band Selection" ... Whenever you change bands or recall a frequency memory, a number of parameters are saved in nonvolatile memory (EEPROM). This update also occurs periodically if you've moved the VFO (see Backup Timer). The parameters that are saved on a per-band basis include: . A and B VFO frequencies and VFO tuning rate . Current VFO (A or B) . Operating mode (CW, USB, LSB) and CW Normal/reverse . AGC slow/fast . Preamp and attenuator on/off . Noise blanker on/off (requires noise blanker option) . ANT1/2 selection (ATU option) . Receive antenna on/off (160 m/RX ant. option) Also, see page 94 under "Backup Timer" ... While you're moving the VFO, a 30-second data backup timer is being continuously re-started. Once you have completely stopped tuning the VFO for at least 30 seconds, the K2 will then save your current operating frequency in EEPROM. As long as you stay on a particular frequency, no further updates will be done. 73, Gary KI4GGX K2 S/N 4067 _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
