Summary: Don't follow MFGR instructions to upgrade firmware on new radios - check your version 1sts! ISSUE: I purchased 2 new Radioddity GM-30s. Upgraded firmware took me down V06.03.009 to V06.03.009 RESOLVED by Radioddity. See below for details. The Manual said to download software and latest firmware and install firmware, I did (Doh!) I went from Firmware V06.03.009 DOWN to V06.03.009. MY EMAIL: Hello, Summary: PLEASE GIVE ME THE LINK TO YOUR NEWEST FIRMWARE so I can get back to or better than V6.03.009 I do LOVE my two new radios - XLNT for the price. I got my TWO new Radioddity GM-30s and followed instructions and upgraded the first one. The Firmware "Upgrade" took me DOWN from V6.03.009 to V6.03.006! DId I download the wrong one? Factory Reset did NOT put it back to V6.03.009. MY 2nd radio I do NOT 'update'; so remains V6.03.009. My request: PLEASE GIVE ME THE LINK TO YOUR NEWEST FIRMWARE so I can get back to or better than V6.03.009. I hope to hear from a human. Thank you. ========================= RADIODDITY's (David's) OUTSTANDING REPLY!!

That said, I have been able to secure a copy of the 6.03.009 firmware, which is attached to this reply. (I am human - at least 5 days a week ) Cheers, David Little Radioddity Support Team ======END========= Great support. Gotta Luv Radioddity!!! (after this - I certainly do!)

Hello all, I just did a firmware update on my GM-30 and it all went well, sort of. One thing I failed to do was back up my .data file with channel/freq list before the firmware update. I figured it was not an issue as it was a new radio and I had not really programmed anything yet, starting from scratch. Unfortunately the firmware update deleted about half of the factory channel and frequency assignments, including the ones that we can not modify, so they are blank and I can't restore them. See attached. I've searched around a bit and have not found anyone that has made this mistake, or a .data file to get me back to square 1. I have not checked with the Radioddity yet either. Does anyone have any advice on this? Or by chance have a .data file they could share with me to reset my GM-30? Perhaps I'm missing something obvious. Thanks in advance for your help! Dave
