Pete:

Pressing D+E+F does preserve the current time/date.

Here are two suggestions for preserving the time/date, in addition to
the other settings which can be preserved as Dale points out below:

1.      The BP Transfer software itself could grab the time/date from
the computer upon connection.  I vaguely remember APH staff saying that
the hardware did not support this, but I'm not sure.

2.      If pressing the D-E-F key combination also saved the current
time/date and the user quickly changed batteries, the time/date would be
very nearly correct.  I wouldn't mind losing 15 seconds or so - One
wouldn't even notice this since the clock is only accurate to the
nearest minute, and most people usually replace the batteries within a
day/month/year!

The d-e-f command saves the voice settings. Obviously, keeping the time=20
rolling would require power, so that is not maintained.
