[Elecraft] P3 forgets set ranges in Fixed Track mode (WARC)

[K1GQ]

My P3 routinely forgets the per-band SPAN when I set it using software commands instead of P3 buttons. Doesn’t matter which band, and the SPAN is remembered properly if I press the corresponding FN button for the computer-set SPAN before I change bands.

My P3 also forgets the per-band REF LVL setting, but not always and only on 160m.

I'm wondering if i am the only person that has experienced this issue.  I can't pinpoint exactly how this happens but I am usually operating on 10 meters when I change bands and discover 12 and 17 have had the fixed track frequency I set disappear.

Not an earth shattering problem as the  P3 works fine and I change the setting back, just an irritant.  I'm wondering if it is just my station or have others experienced this, remedy anyone?
