The K3 manual says the Band switch scrolls through the ham bands. But if I enter a general coverage frequency, say 11.000, it becomes the setting of the nearest ham band. So, when I'm scrolling, I see 7.000, 11.000, 14.000, etc. I have to re-enter 10.100 to get 30m to the right setting.
11.000 isn't a ham band frequency, so IMHO it shouldn't be stored in the scrolling order for the ham bands. I think it would be an improvement to have a General Mode (On/Off) or Ham Mode (On/Off) menu entry that can be programmed into one of the function keys. In Ham mode, the Band switch would be limited to a configurable set of Ham-only bands. In General mode, the Band button would be 1 MHz up or down. If the user enters a Ham or General frequency, the mode could switch automatically. Does this make sense? 73, Dick WC1M _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
