[Elecraft] K3 VFO B Memory Problems

[Barry Simpson]

I have got my K3 set up so that the number keys act as band keys. Each
number key is assigned to a band and is activated by pressing the M>V key
and then the appropriate number key.

 

The memory set up included memorising the VFO B frequency the same as VFO A
or sometimes a different frequency but in the same band. I also have the M1
- M4 keys programmed to frequencies within each band.

 

This has all worked very well such that when I change bands as described
above the VFO B frequency also changes to the same band at the same time.

 

Not any more however. This afternoon I suddenly found that the VFO B doesn't
change frequency when I move to another band. The only way I can move it is
by using the A>B key. Then it works fine with the pre-programmed M1 - M4
keys.

 

I have tried reloading the firmware but it makes no difference. Has anyone
else experienced this issue ? Has anyone any suggestions to restore the
status quo ?

 

Any ideas would be appreciated.
