[Elecraft] K3: band-bitch

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

90% of my band changes are done by direct frequency entry to drop me in the
band segment I want (e.g. 7.030 or 14.250) It's not a "one button push" but
it's quick, easy, puts me where I want to be without cycling through the
bands using the up/down button, spinning the tuning knob unnecessarily or
programming lots of memories.

I don't want to depend on my computer.

I don't want to have to repeatedly push an up/down button.

I don't want to custom-program memories, and have to remember what's what.

I want to directly go to the band I want with a dedicated keypad.

I bought the K3 despite this shortcoming, so I accept it, just like I accept
that, for me, the radio is a bit too physically small, but that doesn't mean
I have to like it.  It means only that I understand that practically
everything in life is a compromise.
