Gary, The point you are making has been mentioned in the past. It is not a channel selection as mentioned by Brett, but you are referring to the possibility to operate the K3 in either a VFO or Memory mode. This can be done in other radios. The K3 is always in the VFO mode and by a number of keystrokes we can put the VFO in a starting point. When a radio has a memory mode, you can program the memories in a random order, to your liking, and select them by pushing the Up/Down buttons or e.g. the VFO B knob. Subsequently the VFO A knob works as required.
Gary, I believe that this is what you, I, and others want. Therefore our question to Elecraft if this change can be made in a subsequent firmware, or is it hardware limited 73, Fred PA3HGF Subject: [Elecraft] K3 Channel Changing I wonder if there is (or will be in the future) a way to store frequencies (on all bands) into memory and then be able to go to VM mode and use either the VFO A or B to rotate through all o the memories? I have owned a few radios that had this feature and it would be handy for my operating conditions. I have used the M1-M4 and the Band switching via the keypad, but find this cumbersome and time consuming as well as restrictive. If this has been addressed previously then apology is given but I don't have time to read all the traffic on the reflector. 73's Gary. VK4WT/P From: "Brett Howard" <[email protected]> This capability is already in place. You need to proceed the name of the memory with a * and they need to be in sequential memory locations in order to pull it off but once you recall one you can then tune through the memories with the VFO A knob. This is especially handy for the channelized US 60Meter band.
