[Elecraft] Stupid Question

Dave,

You should not have to re-do any alignment after a firmware load.

As part of the Firmware Test Team, I upgrade my firmware almost daily, 
sometimes multiple times each day, and I do *not* redo the PLL or any 
other alignment.

I would only re-do an alignment if the firmware change directly affected 
it, and in that case, the firmware release instructions would state that 
it should be done.  (It has not happened so far).

73,
Don W3FPR
