[Elecraft] Possibly dumb question...

[Fred Jensen]

Sadly, I think the configuration files are keyed to the radio's serial 
number.  I believe one reason for this is the modular nature of Elecraft 
equipment, and attempting to load a config file that includes modules 
the target radio does not would probably lead to problems and lots of 
posts on this list. [:-)  Dick, of Elecraft Utility fame may be able to 
expound more concisely on the subject.
