Bob,

I believe you are ignoring the ALT button (hold of the left side of the Mode button).

Why use a Macro?  Set  the K3 to SSB on the band of interest and change the mode with the MODE button to select SSB the normal sideband for that band, If it is not correct, hold the left side of the Mode button to activate ALT.  Go to the next band and do the same.

You can do the same thing for VFO B (or use the A>B button).
You can also do the same thing for DATA A and AFSK A modes if you use them.

When you switch to the bands after you have done the above, you should be on the correct sideband - it will be remembered.

If you are entering the macro into a computer application, then ignore my suggestion - I only operate "by the buttons".

to select the “proper” sideband mode for the current band.  There is no method 
to query the current frequency and do a conditional MD command.

Is there a way to do this?

BTW I am using the Programmer’s Reference Rev G5, 2/20/2019.

Thanks & 73
