[Elecraft] k3 kx3 memory editor rejects 60 meter entries

[Dick Dievendorff]

Perhaps memories 0-9 are configured as band-specific "quick memories"?

I do have a "BadFrequencyForBandMemory" exception that is thrown if you
attempt to store a frequency in the first few entries and it's not for the
band implied by the memory #

Thanks Don and Matt,
I was able to load everything I wanted except 60 meters into the
spreadsheet. 60 resulted in an "illegal frequency" warning that didn't allow
anything else until I removed the frequency.
I then manually loaded the freq's into the KX3 (which I absolutely love!).
Then I downloaded to the spreadsheet and the freqs were allowed. 
I could even put those previously disallowed freqs elsewhere in the
spreadsheet with no problem. Go figure. At least I have the workaround to
the original problem.
thanks, Neil aa1sb
