[Elecraft] K3 - Strange Mode Problem

[Don Wilhelm]

Fred,

Hold the left side of the MODE button to select the ALT mode.  That will 
change the default sideband for that particular band.

The decision was made some time ago that cycling through LSB, USB, DATA, 
DATA rev, CW, CW rev, AM, FM, etc. could be shortened considerably for 
normal use by remembering the normal sideband for each band - of course, 
you must select which will be your 'normal' sideband.  Set it as you 
desire for each band.

73,
Don W3FPR
