[Elecraft] Transferring Configuration to another K3

[Gary Gregory]

*Matt,

DOH!..I missed that also. You are correct I suspect.

Come to think of it, the two K3's I was using had similar HW specs and
options but were not identical and therefore would not have worked the same.

It did me good to go through the procedure of setting up all the K3 'user'
settings and I helped with the EQ settings and all worked well through the
RD contest.

Regards,
Gary
