There is no need to step to the incorrect band (but you do have to know
which band is incorrect). A direct frequency entry for the band that is
incorrect alone is sufficient (the K3 will switch to the band where the
direct frequency entry is located).
BTW, the K2 suffers from the same situation - you can twist the VFO knob
and tune WAY out of the proper band - the frequency display will follow
even though the VFO has long ago stopped changing frequency because it
topped out.

I suppose I should have mentioned that if you do get yourself into this
situation with the band sequence being screwed up, the change to the band
sequence is permanent until you manually correct it. In other words it
won't go away by itself. To get the bands back into the correct sequence
you will have to step to the band that is incorrect and then, using FREQ
ENT, enter a frequency that is in the correct band and then press A>B to set
VFO B to the same frequency. (e.g. If the slot in the sequence that
normally has 40m actually has an incorrect 80m frequency, then step to that
band entry, press FREQ ENT, using the keypad enter a 40m frequency, press
the AFX/ENTER button, and the press A>B. Your band sequence should now be
correct). No big deal repairing the damage.
