[Elecraft] K3 ham vs general band changes

[Darwin, Keith]

Here's what I'm unclear on.  If I'm on the 20 meter band and I enter
freq 9.8 MHz what happens to my band order as I cycle through them.
Have I "replaced" the 20 meter ban with 9.8 MHz.

Another way to ask the same question, if I want to go to 9.8 MHz, should
I make sure I'm on the 30 meter band BEFORE entering the frequency?

I seem to recall my K2 getting all mixed up if I was on one band and
entered a frequency for another and am wondering if the K3 is the same.

The K3 manual says the Band switch scrolls through the ham bands. But if
I enter a general coverage frequency, say 11.000, it becomes the setting
of the nearest ham band. So, when I'm scrolling, I see 7.000, 11.000,
14.000, etc. I have to re-enter 10.100 to get 30m to the right setting.
