Back in the 80's I wrote myself a database app which dumped memories  
out of my radio (a JRC receiver), let me add/change, sort by  
frequency, mode, type (broadcast, ham, maritime, aero, etc.) and load  
them back into the radio, grouping them into banks (all SWBC starting  
at channel 1, ham at channel 51, marine at channel 101, or whatever I  
wanted). Was a very useful utility app for organizing what was then an  
unheard of number of memory channels for an amateur product (200).  
Would love to have something like that for the K3.

Did it all in Hypercard on a Mac SE/30 -- 16 MHz 68030 chip, 9" b&w  
monitor, 4mb RAM (@$125/mb!), 40mb drive... Ahh, nostalgia.
