Kent,
There's a balance between asking for design changes and carping and it's
sometimes hard to know where to draw the line... Note my original
message just stated the problem I had without stating a possible
solution... I'll leave that to Elecraft, as they are still actively
developing the software for the front panel UI. Channelized tuning (for
example, for 60m or for mobile) was something that was said to be on the
list for a future version. It's not the most important area to attend
to right now (that's probably the 2ND RX) but it should get done. And
when it does, some kind of look at the whole channel/memory/tuning thing
is called for.
By the way, I also own a KX1 and a K2, and have spent considerably time
with a K1 as well.

Guys . . .
This is much ado about nothing. Just LEARN how the K3 does memory
storage and retrieval and it will become second-nature to you.
During the first week or two following assembly I overwrote some
memories a time or two myself . . . until I trained myself not to. In
the nine months since, I have not overwritten anything.
As has been said for a full year now, the K3 is a complicated piece of
gear. At least initially. A complicated radio requires understanding
and effort on the owner's part. If you wish not to exert the required
effort (no shame in that), there are several good entry-level rigs out
there by competent manufacturers, both foreign and domestic. But
there is no reason to demand reinvention of the front panel and
associated circuitry merely because you find certain features awkward
at first.
