  • Discussion thread: here

CPU 2.1 fixes

  • Fixed Marine, VHF, and UHF search frequencies

CPU 2.0 Upgrade

  • Discussion thread: here

CPU 2.0 fixes

  • Pressing the ATT key during scanning while on a CONV object causes the object to be stored to EEPROM immediately. This eliminates the possibility of the ATT status change being lost due to a Priority check.
