Larry,

It is not exactly what you are asking for, but you can see what the 
default setting is for most menu entries - hold the MENU button for 3 
seconds to bring up the Menu Help in the VFO B area. The default 
settings are in parentheses.
See Menu Help Information in the KX3 manual.  If you get totally lost in 
the menu experiments, restoring to the default gives you a fresh 
starting point.

Before experimenting with changes, it is always a good idea to save the 
KX3 Configuration using KX3 Utility.  You can always restore the 
configuration file created before you began the experiments - of course, 
that does not work if you are experimenting in the field with no 
computer available.

If you will be dealing with multiple computers, it is a good idea to 
save the configuration file on a memory stick instead of the default 
location on you computer hard drive.

73,
Don W3FPR
