Bob, some of the "rush" is to try and roll out features that are overdue
by months, plus how long do folks want to wait once a fault is discovered?
I have been running beta 2.23 since it came out and to me there is
nothing wrong with it, although I am not using the KRX3 and much of the
later firmware was to enable features in the KRX3.
There are still issues to be resolved, one I would like fixed is the
inability to adjust power while transmitting data which is tedious.
There are published items on the "to be implemented" list such as the
TCXO calibration to 0.5ppm.
Firmware can be rolled back to earlier versions, so as far as I am
concerned it's a "win win" situation.

-----------------
After reading countless reflector comments about firmware upgrades and
releases, it appears to me that in many instances such so called
upgrades are two steps forward and one in reverse.
You know the drill, fix this problem, add a new feature, and then find
that something that worked in previous versions does not function as
expected and now demands a fix and another firmware version.
Personally, I would like to see fewer firmware releases and more time
spent vetting firmware before it is released. Firmware upgrades should
be two steps forward -- period!
The rush to add new features and fix bugs in firmware appears to me to
be too rushed to be efficient and effective. Tell me fellows, why the rush?
