Don's suggestion will get the SteppIR controller tracking K3 frequency.
I've done it. But I abandoned the idea because every time I crossed a
segment boundary (every 25 or 50 KHz?), the SteppIR would briefly retune,
generating a bit of RFI and suspending my amp until done. I found that
annoying and went back to the band buttons. Now the SteppIR only retunes
when I want it to.
