Hi Guy's I am using a serial cable, not had any problems b4 with downloads. Tried to download latest Beta when it all went south.
Repeated on/off has not helped so far. Let me get this correct in my head. 1. turn off linear power supply. 2 wait 10 seconds. 3 Reboot windows xp pro Should I start the utility 1st?...(I am using latest version) or the radio? I am seeing the radio come on when I press the button and the led's are bright. If I keep holding the power button the radio comes on, no backlight just flashing red tx light and MCU LD on the display. Thanks guys. Gary I just got lost in thought.............
