I really do not understand why you are getting concerned about this 
Brett.  The actual storage is done on the Pc, not the K3.  granted there 
will be a few more lines of code but I cannot see it as a problem.  As I 
see it, that issue is down to Elecraft.  They tell us that there is 
plenty of room so that is fine by me.
