[Elecraft] [K3] General coverage hijacks ham band

[Harry Yingst via Elecraft]

I actually like that was the best (adding bands between the Ham bands)
I have a Flex-1500 and it pretty much works like that, and even has a separate WWV band button.
I like to listen to SW and the way it is now I have to do a cleanup when I'm done.

I suggest adding a "band" between each ham band. When switching 
away from these bands, the frequencies/modes/etc. would be saved 
in the band and the ones from the new band would be loaded as 
happens now.

These bands would not be accessed with the band up/down switch 
unless enabled using a new menu item, thus avoiding pollution of 
the ham bands with out-of-band frequencies.

One can dream further and have multiple bands between the ham 
bands for SW broadcast, public service etc. One could even 
imagine a WWV band which has all the WWV frequencies in a 
non-contiguous band. I don't really recommend any of these 
frills, but they are fun to think about.
