Yes my K3/K144XV does the same. When it showed 181 MHz on the VFO A display 
(after entering 145) ERR PL1 also appeared briefly on the VFO B display. 
Then, after using the bandswitch to go to 2m the VFO A display started with 
144.000 MHz but on subsequent visits to 2m via the bandswitch it stayed 
where I had left it, as normal, and did not revert to 144.000 MHz

73 to all

I am using my K3 with the internal transverter K144XV. Today I installed
the (beta) Firmware 4.58.
My problem: Entering any 2m- QRG, e.g. 144.300 by pushing on the front panel
"FREQ ENT" 1 4 4 . 3 0 0 "ENTER (AFX)" results in changing the K3 to
180.300 MHz
e.g. 145.525 results in 181.525 MHz ...
Always exactly 36 MHz too much! Also when entering QRGs by my contesting
software via RS232...
The only way to activate 2m is using the bandswitch-button - then my K3
starts with 144.000 MHz.
