[Elecraft] KX1: no 80 meters with KXB3080

[Don Wilhelm]

Bernie,

The info is in the KXB3080 manual and is hinted at in the Rev 1.02 firmware.
If you do not have the Rev 1.02 firmware installed, then no b80 is 
available.

Assuming the firmware is correct, do the following:
1) Enter the menu and move the VFO knob to b30
2) Push the RIT button and the display should change to b80
3) Hold the EDIT button until the display changes to On or Off
4) Move the VFO knob to set the parameter to On
5) Tap the MENU button twice to exit the menu
You should now have 80 meters available.

73,
Don W3FPR
