[Elecraft] K3 Configuration to KS3

K3s is coming next week. I have my existing K3 set up the way I like 
to use it and have saved the configuration via the excellent utility. 

The K3s is coming completed, I will immediately put the 100W module 
and the ATU in place. I currently have a sub Rx in the K3, I will 
move it to the K3s once I have completed upgrading the low frequency 
modules and perform the needed updates on the Sub Rx. 

I haven't done any soldering to surface mount components and need to 
first practice on a junk component so I may not get those soldering 
changes done right away. Soon, but not till I feel 100% secure I will 
do a perfect job.

I'd like to start using the new rig ASAP but would like the setup to 
be like my K3 is, using as examples; my saved selections for RTTY & 
DSP.

- Will I encounter any unexpected problems if I load my K3 
configuration to the K3s and start operating?

- If the answer is no, will there be any negative issues to the 
normal operation of the K3s if I change the configuration of the K3s 
to that from my K3 which has the sub Rx, if I do so before adding the 
sub Rx to the K3s? Or will I need to put the Sub Rx in before 
importing my K3 configuration?

If there will be issues then I should run through all the various 
configuration settings and write each of them down. There's a lot to 
do if that's the case and it will be awhile before I get all those 
settings in a list.

73 & thanks,

Gary
