[Elecraft] K3s Power Selection

In the Config Menu:

PWR SET
If set to PER-BAND, the power level is saved on each band. 
This is especially useful with external amplifiers. 

Mine is set to PER-BAND.

If a KPA500 is connected to the K3S via the ACC cable (as mine is), 
two sets of per-band power settings are saved: one 
for “barefoot” operation, one for use with the amp.

Where and how do I save and then access these two savings? Are the somehow automatically selected?

In my case I want to save 100 watts for "barefoot" operation and 25 watts for amplifier operation. I've tried using Quick Memories 1-9 for bands — which works fine — and Quick Memories  M1 and M2 for the two power settings for each band — which does NOT work.

What's the right way to do this?
