[Elecraft] didn't make myself very clear :(

Tristani,

Yes, there is a combination of buttons that will set the K3 (or K3S) to 
the Factory Defaults.
In the process, several calibration settings are also set to the factory 
standard default values - but those values may not be the ones that 
exactly match your K3S - there are calibration settings that are unique 
to each K3 (K3S).
The process for EEINIT (Parameter Initialization) can be found on page 
66 of the manual.
If you have saved a configuration using K3Utility prior to encountering 
any problems, you can restore that configuration and the calibration 
settings will also be restored.  If you have not saved a configuration 
when the K3S was operating properly, you will have to go through the 
calibration procedures after doing an EEINIT.

Bottom line, save a configuration file on your computer when you get 
your K3S and again after making any significant changes.  In case of 
difficulty, you can then try an EEINIT and reload the last working 
configuration and you should be "good to go".

73,
Don W3FPR
