I kinda like the way it is and this is my thoughts: If I had 2 K3's (any vintage) and I was to check my setup, what if both are not identical?, maybe one has a second rcvr and may different filters? Having 2 utilities on my PC would not bother me. If I have separate PC's for each, then again I see no problem. I rarely use the utility these days, when I do, I save a config copy. Again if I had 2 K3's, I don't see an advantage in being able to copy from one trcvr to another....i can see where I could make a mistake and mess things up though. So can somebody please explain to me what I may be missing or perhaps an example of how I could benefit from what is being discussed. Sadly as I get older I seem to be getting slower...:-) Gary

In fact, if I were the author of the K3 utility, I would check serial numbers, and if they are different ask the user if he wants to restore the settings that are not rig-dependent.
