When you band switch, you should start on the last-used frequency (and mode) on that band. Try punching in 28.0 using the direct frequency entry buttons, then press band up and band down and see if you don't land on 28. I just tried this with success.
Also, turn K3 power off by pressing the K3's POWER button rather than removing power some other way. When you press the K3 POWER button to turn it off, the K3 saves current information (like the last-used frequency on each band) in non-volatile memory and this will be restored when you power up again. After the K3's power-down you can then remove the power supply voltage. But if you turn off the power supply while the K3 is still on, it doesn't have a chance to save these operating parameters. 73 de Dick, K6KR -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bruce McLaughlin Sent: Monday, October 03, 2011 12:54 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Elecraft] changed behavior of the K-3 when switching to the 10 meter band With the recent band opening on 10 meters I switched to that band for almost the first time with my K-3. Instead of showing 28.0 MHz it showed 30.0 MHz, in other words, beyond the top of the band. Is there a way to get it to land on 28.0 when switched to 10 meters? I thank you in advance for any advice.
