Don, This solution doesn't work for me since I have all M1 - M4 buttons used on all bands from 160 through 6 meters to allow me to quickly go to the CW , RTTY, and SSB portions of the bands. I use these stored sub-band memories all the time. I suppose one workaround would be to use the M1 to M4 memories like you suggest in a contest, and then use the K3 Freq Memory Editor to restore the sub-band memories once the contest is over.
Still, this is not a true band stacking feature -- which should require only one button to store and one to recall the memories with the ability to cycle back and forth between the quick memories.
