Dave:

Thanks for your thoughts/suggestion!

I've been using this method for decades (but obviously, still willing
to try a new approach) and yet again, I have demonstrated that for the
vast majority of cases, there is simply no faster way to get to a
previously unknown discrete frequency than by using the keypad entry
method.

The auto-erasure of the SPLIT function when using the keypad entry
method is, in my opinion, something to be addressed (aka corrected?)
and I've sent this request to K3Support.  Maybe it's a "feature."  :-)
