In a temp multi-op environment it's all to easy to make a mistake. During a
W1AW op I changed bands by stepping my way there and didn't go quick enough
to avoid pausing on an active band and fried my D5 extra crispy (that was a
fun repair). After that all band changes were strictly direct entry. 73
