[Elecraft] [K3] 60 Meter Memory Setup and AGC Mode Switches

I have the five 60 meter channels set up in memory channels 10 through 14 with the asterisks so these channels truncate while tuning in either VFO or memory mode.  VFO B shows 5150 Khz on all five of these channels.  I did not program this frequency in VFO B for these channels.   My other K3 shows the previous VFO A frequency in VFO B.  It seems that VFO B can be any frequency and won't cause a problem.  Are these strange frequencies in VFO B normal for these 60 meter channels? 
Sometimes when I change bands in memory mode and switch to VFO mode AGC goes from slow to fast.  If I change it back to AGC-S, it may remain in slow mode, but if I change bands it may go to AGC-F.  AGC on all bands has been set to AGC-S with V>M.  Am I overlooking something or doing something wrong?  Thanks.  Roy  W4WFB
