I seem to recall a few postings to the list where it seemed that some problem was caused by a wrong config setting but the person didn't recall explicitly changing the setting. Since the rig is new to many people, my assumption is usually that they inadvertently changed a setting while exploring the config menus. It's easy enough to bump the main tuning knob when reaching for the VFO B knob. Now I'm not so sure.

This afternoon I turned on my K3 and was surprised when I hit the band- down button and went from 30m to 80m. Several weeks ago I had locked out 60m, but 40m is one of my most used bands (used as recently as this morning). I checked the Band Map and sure enough, 40m was OUT. Since I haven't been in the config menu for quite a while, I don't think there's any way I could have inadvertently changed that particular configuration item. The only thing I've done recently besides normal operation is I loaded the latest beta firmware (2.67) this morning. Now I'm wondering if that could have somehow caused this configuration change.

Has anyone else noticed inappropriate configuration changes after loading new firmware?
