[Elecraft] KX3 copying settings to another
Hi, Sure this has been answered but cannot seem to find it I would like the clone one KX3 settings over to another. The backup/restore is great but will not let you do it as the serial numbers are different. Both are identical EXCEPT one (the one I want to copy to) doesn't have the internal ATU. Is this possible? It's all the little tweaks and the macros etc I'd like them to exist on both. Pain having to adjust all the menus manually. 72 Dom M1KTA #1082 and #2334 __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
Re: [Elecraft] KX3 copying settings to another
Not possible at this time. The saved file contains all the settings you want to configure the radio, but also calibration and other settings that are radio specific. ...bill nr4c Sent from my Verizon Wireless 4G LTE DROID Dominic Baines dominic.bai...@ntlworld.com wrote: Hi, Sure this has been answered but cannot seem to find it I would like the clone one KX3 settings over to another.

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 copying settings to another
Macros (command memories, CW memories, frequency memories) are not preserved in the saved configuration file. Only the data that is perturbed by a parameter initialization is preserved by save/restore. The configuration save file includes calibration data, which is specific to a serial number. The KX3 configuration save/restore is not a full backup/restore.

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 copying settings to another
OK. So do you know how could it be done? Is it planned? Must be a few SO2R K3/KX3 ops out there by now Any reason why a 100% backup could not be taken? Or is the idea that a combination of firmware (MCU and DSP) plus the configuration backup is the same as full backup, what else is missing?

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 copying settings to another
While we're thinking about this subject, consider being able to copy the major settings between all Elecraft models (where it makes sense). I could see a UI that said, Copy macros, Copy memories etc. The user would select which chunks to copy.

How would you map the eight cw messages into six on KX3? Or the 8 DVR msgs onto just 3? ...bill nr4c Sent from my Verizon Wireless 4G LTE DROID Bill Frantz fra...@pwpconsult.com wrote: While we're thinking about this subject, consider being able to copy the major settings between all Elecraft models (where it makes sense).

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 copying settings to another
That is an implementation detail. One could be fancy and prompt, or simple and just carry over the first six (or three). The issue is not carrying over the alignment from one radio to another, since that is unique. On 12/12/2013 11:55 AM, bill conkling wrote: How would you map the eight cw messages into six on KX3?
