[Elecraft] K3: too easy to overwrite dial memories

[K9ZTV]

Guys . . .

This is much ado about nothing.  Just LEARN how the K3 does memory 
storage and retrieval and it will become second-nature to you.

During the first week or two following assembly I overwrote some 
memories a time or two myself . . . until I trained myself not to.  In 
the nine months since, I have not overwritten anything.

As has been said for a full year now, the K3 is a complicated piece of 
gear.  At least initially.  A complicated radio requires understanding 
and effort on the owner's part.  If you wish not to exert the required 
effort (no shame in that), there are several good entry-level rigs out 
there by competent manufacturers, both foreign and domestic.  But there 
is no reason to demand reinvention of the front panel and associated 
circuitry merely because you find certain features awkward at first.
