cloning

[vk3fmpw]

Hi.
Is it possible to clone one KX3 from another as I can not see anything in the paperwork to assist with this question and if so HOW?

Hi David:

Well... by cloning, I assume you mean frequency memories, message  
memories and macros.  That's an interesting question, since while you  
can save and preserve all the settings of a particular KX3 via the  
Utility, I think there are some rig-specific settings which are  
extremely important.

Perhaps the software gurus will add a cloning option to the utility...  
unless it's already there and I don't know about it.  :)

I don't know for sure, but if the kx3 is like the k3...the utility program sees the radio serial number and will only re write to the same serial....

The configuration save file contains only what is cleared by Parameter Initialization (EEINIT), which is a small part of the radio's total state.

KX3 Utility Help describes in general terms what is and is not included in this file.
