[Elecraft] K3 Bandwidth SAV Not Working

It works on mine (using the current Beta firmware). However, I had to  
read the errata addition in the instructions 3 times to get it.

SUGGESTION:  I think it would be more useful to have it edit what NORM  
means so that one press of NORM would give me my preferred setting(s)  
of I/II.

For example, on CW (I have the 500Hz filter) NORM is .50. I'd rather  
begin cruising the band with a wider setting, then narrow down when I  
choose. So I'd prefer to save my NORM setting as .90. I was hoping to  
do this with SAV, but to have to then remember to turn the knob to an  
ALT, it's more trouble than just adjusting the passband wider.
