Bill,

If you have used the [FREQ ENT] method of entering a frequency, and
set a frequency in another band, the next time you return to that band
via the band button you will be at the frequency you set the last time
you were there.

Is it possible that you entered 52 manually while in the 80m slot,
instead of 3.52?  I've done that before.
