Ok Arie, most such "ideas" are based on personal experience and feeling.
For example when I am running K3 at i/f for 10GHz during contest using
ANT output for driving of transverter chain with 100mW out, I am
little bit afraid when somebody else from our club is running this
setup not to swith to some HF band by mistake where - if not set to
0,1W for all bands before - more power up to 12W (yes, I have 10W
only version...) can go to ANT and which is able to destroy
transverter TX input driven by 100mW.
(Sometimes there is also unwanted band-switching during VOX or QSK
mode changing - yes it is mistake of operator, but...)
So as you can simply see, in my case there is this reason to "disable"
all others bands from UP/DOWN swithing to in this specific setup.
Maybe I am alone, maybe not :-)

During a WW contest there are many buttons I press and controls I touch.
I do not mind touching a band button an extra time to skip a band when
I'm changing bands.
This is realy the least of my problems...

Onderwerp: [Elecraft] K3: band enable/disable option ?
Maybe we can talk about BAND ENABLE config option which can disable
some band(-s) from band UP/DOWN selection for example WARC bands in
time on some WW Contest or all HF bands during transverter mode or
some personal preferencies as 160 - 80 - 30m fast switching only etc.
Coming back to "enable" status for some band can be done via direct
frq entry and then BAND ENABLE in config.
This enable/disable idea is only about band UP/DOWN button behavior
nothing about mode or tuning/freq input/computer control ....
just idea
