[Elecraft] K2 turn on frequency/band memory

I'm still leanring all the features and quirks of my K2 (5705)  and have a 
quick question.  Exactly how does the default frequency of each band get 
set..  The manual mentions how 'each band memory is preset..' on first turn 
on, but I can't find an explanation of how it is changed.  By trial and 
error, it seems to be changed when I change frequency, then change mode, but 
not just by changing frequency.  So if I'm in cw mode, tune to an interesting 
frequency, turn the radio off then back on, it goes back to a previously 
determined frequency, not the most recent one.  If I change frequency, cycle 
through cw-usb-lsb-cw, turn the radio off and back on, it then comes up with 
the most recent frequency.  The same behavior seems to apply to changing 
bands.  Is this the way it is supposed to work and is it possible to have it 
just remember the most recent frequency on each band without cycling through 
the modes?

Thanks for any suggestions!
