Yes that is what happened I just loaded the latest FW the mcu and FPF firmware update went well but when it loaded the DSP when it restarted the radio for some reason it didn't recognize the 2.88 version it had just installed. You know question marks ??.?? For the installed version for the DSP. The others look ok. And I get the ERR AT3. I have not searched yet for other trouble codes. I am at work right now. I will look at it again when I get home. I have been going through the release notes but there is a lot to go through. I will look into the parameter reset also. I will let you know how it goes.

( from 1.96 to 5.67. The oldest I have seen come in was 1.30!!) It is rare, but I have seen a glitch or two in extreme jumps. One is the ADC REF gets set to an invalid voltage of 4.00 which is OUT of RANGE!! Also any saved configs you might load could be an issue if you re-load. I can send you some in-between FW, but it is a LOT OF WORK and is NO guarantee that glitch won't happen. Is there some feature that you are specifically avoiding?? If you don't go with the latest, the Manual etc will not match, nor would any discussion with CS or other folks that are current. Reading the release notes is an excellent idea if you want to look for something specific, or ask me or CS. I *HIGHLY* recommend loading the latest FW and then after do a "Parameter RESET", (EE-INIT-ialization), and then setup and calibrate from SCRATCH. (IE don't load an old config). **That is what I do in repairs (after checking with customer) for such a large jump in FW. Also, that old of a radio will need gold pins and MANY hardware updates, feel free to send it in so I can get my hands on it, hi hi!
