It is VERY important to turn the K3 and K3S off at the radio, NOT by 
killing power it. When turned off, the rig writes its current  state to 
memory, so comes back to where it was when turned on next. If power 
drops while it's running, it returns to the last saved state.

But if power drops for a second or so and is restored, the radio can 
come back up in a strange state that doesn't work. I've had this happen 
at least twice. K6XX taught me to leave the radio off without power for 
15-30 minutes, then turn it back on. Both times I've done this, it came 
back just fine to the last saved state. Worst case, it may be necessary 
to do an EEINIT.
