[Elecraft] Transferring Configuration to another K3

[Thomas.Norff at t-online.de]

Hi,
i invested a bit of time to analyze the config-file ..

There are different information inside this file
   - some are dedicated to a single device (calibration values,...) and should never be shared
   - some are interchangeable (settings, ... ) and could be shared, but had to be rearranged dependant on the konfiguration of the K3
     otherwise one could only share configurations between equal configured K3
   - ...
   
One possible way would be to use a webpage to describe the configuration (modules, settings, ...) and upload the config.
Each config would have to be separated into transverable peaces (by software ...)

Based on this peaces one could create a new config, or mix it with an existing config.

This is technically possible but there is still a chance to 'scramble' your K3.

Maybe it would be better to use a software to control the K3, like a user in front of the K3, to modify settings.

*Richard,

Same here BUT it would be nice if we could "swap" K3 configurations so I
hope somebody figures it out.

I wanted to set up a 2nd K3 the same as mine for a new owner and so i was
forced to do it manually for every setting as the other op didn't have a
laptop either.
