Grant,
The reason it limits the waterfall to 100 in mode 3 is to make more room
for the text decode.
Why the maximum value does not go back to 139 when you cycle around to
1) again is not something I can make any statements about. Perhaps Paul
S will comment (bug or 'feature').
Finding things of this nature is what the beta version is all about.
You might want to email Paul directly pauls at you-know-where dot com
with your report in case he is not monitoring the reflector at this time.

I haven’t tried this on previous firmware versions, but it does exist in the
current beta. Looked through Nabble and didn’t see anything related, but might
have missed it. Just started playing with digi modes so haven’t haven’t had a
need to look at this previously.
A long press on the MENU button will toggle between the three display modes (1)
Spectrum/Waterfall, (2) Spectrum/Waterfall/Button-Menu, (3)
Spectrum/Waterfall/Text.
When in mode (1) above, the maximum Waterfall height can be adjusted to 139.
Same in mode (2) above. However, in mode (3) above the Waterfall height can
only be set to a maximum of 100 (which is still a reasonable display, but does
not follow the pattern).
However … let’s say we set the Waterfall to 139 in mode (1). If I toggle to
mode (2), the Waterfall height remains at 139. If I toggle to mode (3), the
Waterfall height reverts to 100. And then the next toggle, which goes back to
mode (1), RESETS the Waterfall height to 100 instead of holding it at the
previously set 139.
If I then POWER OFF the KX3, and power it back on, the Waterfall height in mode
(1) RETURNS TO 139. Until I cycle around the options again …
