I'm confused.  If you used the higher frequency crystal
(18.1 MHz, the one intended for the 80 kHz span) and used
a 160 kHz VFO span, your K1 would cover 10.1 to 10.26 MHz,
which doesn't seem to align "align" with the other bands.
I would think that using the 18.0 MHz crystal instead to
allow coverage of 10.0 to 10.16 MHz (and thus WWV) would be
more useful.
