Some of the player settings are stored on the server side. You can use
my SettingsManager plugin (see below) to save the current Radio's
server settings to a "custom group", and then copy those custom
settings to the new one.

But many settings -- sound effects, screensavers, etc. -- are stored on
the Radio itself. Right now there's no good way to copy those. They're
generally stored on the Radio under /etc/squeezeplay/userpath, and you
*can* copy them on/off the device with a SCP client like WinSCP after
you enable Remote Login. At least the
/etc/squeezeplay/userpath/settings/SlimDiscovery.lua file has a
reference to the local player's hardware network interface MAC address,
so I wouldn't copy that one from old to new.
