[Elecraft] K3: band enable/disable option ?

[Alexandr Kobranov]

Maybe we can talk about BAND ENABLE config option which can disable 
some band(-s) from band UP/DOWN selection for example WARC bands in 
time on some WW Contest or all HF bands during transverter mode or 
some personal preferencies as 160 - 80 - 30m fast switching only etc.
Coming back to "enable" status for some band can be done via direct 
frq entry and then BAND ENABLE in config.
This enable/disable idea is only about band UP/DOWN button behavior 
nothing about mode or tuning/freq input/computer control ....

just idea
