[Elecraft] wishing I didn't hard reset

[Don Wilhelm]

Folks,

For those who do wish to record the menu settings (everyone should), I
recommend that you download the "K2ATOBKT" manual from the Elecraft website
www.elecraft.com and print pages 3 and 4.
Those sheets provide a convenient list of all the menu settings you would
need if some disaster (like having to do a master reset) should happen.

For those who do not already realize - a Master Reset cleans out all the
menu settings in the K2 and sets them to the factory defaults - those
defaults may provide an operational K2, but certainly are not the settings
that you would want for proper operation.
