[Elecraft] 60 meters

That doesn't work Wes, the problem is simpler than that.  However, Don 
has confirmed the behavior, and now it's time for me to be a "Real Ham" 
and do something here in NE Sparks NV [instead of on the list] to fix 
"my" problem.  Don's [and one other's] solution with 10 memories is a 
first-run candidate. Since I haven't been on SSB in years, ignoring what 
happens to VFO B may be an answer too. [:-)
