Bill, while the original post was about the 60 m channels, the K3 Memory Editor works for all frequencies for all bands.  As you note, split operation makes essentially no sense on the 5 60 m channels in the US.  It does make sense elsewhere. 73, Fred ["Skip"] K6DGW Sparks NV DM09dn Washoe

Comments on the R & O - Effective EST on March 5, 2012. Amateurs are permitted to operate on five specific frequency channels, each having an effective bandwidth of 2.8 kHz. *Table 1:* Channel 1: 5330.5 kHz Channel 2: 5346.5 kHz Channel 3: 5357.0 kHz Channel 4: 5371.5 kHz Channel 5:

Split on 60 meters takes two channels and is a waste of BW. Remember there is no "up 1k" on 60 meters. TX is only authorized on the channels. Sent from my iPhone ...nr4c. bill > On Sep 29, 2017, at 7:50 PM, Fred Jensen wrote: > > I used the K3 Memory Editor and set up

I use memories 61, 62, 63, 64 & 65 for 60 meter frequencies and mode.  You can choose memories of your choice.  By doing this then pressing V-M one can "tune" through the memories.  Finding one you wish to use,then press V-M again and the radio goes there. Those frequencies are are as follows

I used the K3 Memory Editor and set up the 5 "channels" for both CW and SSB.  Worked really slick and I could give them meaningful names that appear in VFO B.  It's on the Elecraft site, "K3/K3s, KX3, and K2 Control Software."  The memories contain both VFO A and B data, so you can set up one

You might try the manual section on using memories. A 60 meter frequency works like any other. Also note that a "*" in the right place allows that group of memories to be selected with VFO knob. Sent from my iPhone ...nr4c. bill > On Sep 29, 2017, at 4:20 PM,

Pete, Check page 42 of the K3S manual. What you are likely seeking is "Channel Hopping". BTW, the same thing works for other than 60 meters if you have a need - like checking the bands for DX Beacons. 73, Don W3FPR On 9/29/2017 4:20 PM, w...@comcast.net wrote: Some time back there was

Some time back there was some great information on setting up the K3(s) to operate on 60 meters. It involved saving the frequencies in memories and recalling them. I had my K3 set up that way but with the K3S changeover, that's gone and I can't seem to find that information on the web (perhaps
