I think Stan said he was on 10m, not a transverter band. If he has a
transverter programmed in (maybe without his knowledge?) 10m would
still be 10m and the xvtr band would be its own band.
I'm stumped. Waiting for Stan to reply to last email....
Someone thought it might be LOCKed, but that applies across all bands'
VFO settings.

This is very confusing, Stan. Are you saying that if you tap BAND (up), you
move from 24 to 28.676 MHz and then can't dial VFO A down to 28.4?
Explanation of why this is confusing / strange / whatever: VFO A is just an optical
encoder with A/B outputs. A and B act in quadrature (only one of them changes per
"click") and the transitions are counted by a microcontroller (MCU). The only
limit on what frequency range you can dial to is the firmware inthe MCU. The K3 allows
receive from VLF (136 KHz) through 30 MHz, used without a transverter.
Why don't you try direct frequency entry before any next steps. See if you can
enter 28.400 MHz. At least that will put you on freq. Then you can memorize it
using the V > M switch.
I wouldn't EE INIT the radio until all other options are exhausted. If you decide to do
that anyway, be sure and save your K3's configuration first. You'll need to restore it
after the "set defaults" is completed.

Thanks Matt. Nope all bands are set to In. I am unable to dial 28.400.
The band jumps from 24.842 to 28.676. Perhaps I should try dropping
everything down to default settings and see what happens?

BND MAP may be set to OFF for 10m on his K3. See p54 of the Owner's
