Wayne, With the forthcoming KX3-2M module and operation on 2m-FM channels, having memory freq. be locked in FM would be very handy for portable/mobile operation. I wonder it that could be accomplished in firmware when FM mode it added to the firmware. I am only suggesting this for FM memory channels. One can always go to VFO if tuning the FM freq. was desired. That was a feature that was much appreciated in the FT-817 (one could lock the VFO and tune memories without fear of bumping the knob).
A similar issue will be entering repeater pair frequencies and subaudible tones (CTCSS), manually. So far with my K3 I have only been able to enter new repeater pairs by using the utility (which is easy), but the KX3 will see much port/mobile use where access to a computer may not exist. I am still waiting delivery of my KX3 so expect to be more familiar with its operation once it has arrived. 73, Ed - KL7UW, WD2XSH/45 ====================================== BP40IQ 500 KHz - 10-GHz www.kl7uw.com EME: 50-1.1kw?, 144-1.4kw, 432-QRT, 1296-?, 3400-?
