upgrading firmware

Chris Kantarjiev K6DBG
Installing KDSP2 has encouraged me to finally upgrade my firmware and IOC.
That means that I have to "write down everything that might get destroyed"...
but I don't see a good list of just what that might be!

Suggestion to Elecraft: please add a fill-in-the-blanks table to
the firmware instructions, to encourage owners to track down all the
values.

Question for everyone - is there such a table already out there? I wrote
down all the top level menu settings and went through CAL FIL for
four "modes" - CW, LSB, USB, CW REV - four filters each with two settings.

Anything else?

Chris,

Indeed such a table does exist.  It appears with the 'A to B' upgrade
instructions.  I do not believe the table of firmware settings to be
recorded has ever been extracted from that document, but you can
download the full A to B instructions from the Elecraft website ->
http://www.elecraft.com/manual/k2a2binstr.pdf

Depending on your current firmware level, the settings may be retained,
but in any case it is a REALLY GOOD IDEA to record your settings just in
case ...
