[TenTec] User 1, User 2, etc Settings

Thanks to Barry and Carl, both

I googled "PA1AP Orion Backup and Restore" and found it at 
https://app.box.com/v/pa1ap.  It will do what I want. I think it does 
what NP4Y software does in that it takes a snapshot of the current full 
state of the radio except for the memories, which must be stored separately.

I've found that if I leave the rig idle for a few days, I get a master 
reset when I turn it back on. The battery was replaced when the rig was 
in for service in 2013, so I'm surprised that I'm getting symptoms of 
battery failure, but maybe this is simply One of Those Things.  I've 
ordered a new battery and will install it as soon as I have the time. In 
the interim, at least I can get back to what I had when I turned the rig 
off with the PA1AP software.

73,
