Copying Configurations
Locked
 
|
Is it possible to copy the config from one K3 to another? The utility will
not allow it if the S/N are different. Is there a way to bypass that? Will it cause any problems with the target radio? 73, Ron, K5HM [hidden email] www.qrz.com/db/k5hm ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [hidden email] |

It would cause problems because some calibration parameters individual
to each radio would be copied. So don't try to trick it into letting you do it! On 7/29/14 8:31 AM, K5HM wrote: > Is it possible to copy the config from one K3 to another?

No, it is not possible to copy configurations from one K3 to another. In my view, bypassing the serial number check would not be straightforward (I would guess that Elecraft use checksums to protect the integrity of the files). If you somehow manage to achieve this, then yes, it will cause problems with the target radio, and the radio would need to be recalibrated.

The memory editor (for KX3/K3) is the best compromise. Ops may use it
to transfer memories from one unit to another. This program does not change configuration, just memories. As Matt said, transferring the entire config from one unit to another would change the target's parametrics and might make it unusable, requiring recalibration. The config section of the K3 and KX3 utilities registers the serial number and a CRC (checksum), and the config image may only be restored to the original radio. 73, matt W6NIA >No, it is not possible to copy configurations from one K3 to another. , >Matt VK2RQ Matt Zilmer, W6NIA www.elecraft.com 831-763-4211 x129 ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [hidden email] |

That way you can sit down at someones K3, upload your user-config, and have 'your' K3 with things set how you like it.

Will be good to have a set of parameters of personal configurations that
don´t affect calibrations or something else and can be copied from one to another K3 I think that could be done with some parameters, right? 73, Jorge CX6VM/CW5W K3 #4077 & #7929 -----Mensaje original----- De: Elecraft [mailto:[hidden email]] En nombre de Vic, K2VCO Enviado el: martes, 29 de julio de 2014 12:49 p.m. Para: [hidden email] Asunto: Re: [Elecraft] Copying Configurations It would cause problems because some calibration parameters individual to each radio would be copied.

Hi
Win4K3Suite starting in version 1.62 has the ability to export and load most menu settings to a file as well as the current operating parameters. It does not transfer any serial number related settings. You can see an example at http://va2fsq.com/?page_id=612 about 1/2 way down the page. The export allows you to export the current settings of the menu commands you see as well as the current state of the K3 or KX3. Memory frequency files are separate as are macros. Of coarse with enough demand this can be enhanced . 73’s Tom va2fsq.com On Jul 29, 2014, at 2:16 PM, Jorge Diez - CX6VM <[hidden email]> wrote: > Will be good to have a set of parameters of personal configurations that > don´t affect calibrations or something else and can be copied from one to > another K3 > > I think that could be done with some parameters, right? > > 73, > Jorge > CX6VM/CW5W > K3 #4077 & #7929 > > -----Mensaje original----- > De: Elecraft [mailto:[hidden email]] En nombre de Vic, > K2VCO > Enviado el: martes, 29 de julio de 2014 12:49 p.m. > Para: [hidden email] > Asunto: Re: [Elecraft] Copying Configurations > > It would cause problems because some calibration parameters individual to > each radio would be copied.
