I do some SWLing using my Sony shortwave, and had been lately on my FTdx3000.  
Now that I have a KX3 I find some limitations with it.

Let’s say I start low in the 160m band, set the mode to AM, and start scrolling 
up frequencies.  At some point I cross over into 80m, then 40m.  At that point 
I switch bands to go listen to 20m.  But when I go back to 40m it is now set to 
AM since that’s where I happened to leave off my SWLing.

It would be nice if there were an additional “band" that isn’t necessarily tied 
to the amateur bands but is independent.  The FTdx3000 has a GEN band button 
for this purpose, so as to not interfere with the saved positions in the other 
bands.

Has this been suggested in the past?


  Thanks and 73,
