V3 adds a lot of new features. The button labels are now user editable. The band limits and centre frequency for each button can be changed. Your changes then can be saved to disk and reused at any time by opening the folder where they were saved.

One of the cool features is that you can setup the buttons and bands depending on if you're a HAM or a SWL. The examples below shows two ways to label the buttons and setup the band limits.

An example layout for the HAM bands.

And now with SWL buttons.
