The entire CONFIG and MAIN menus can be stored in a file on the PC and
restored to the K3.  So, each operator can have their own setup.  You could
also have a standard setup for each contest.  Organize it however you want,
but the capability is there to support save/restore of an unlimited number
of complete radio configurations.
