Martin:  Here is a link that I used to upgrade a 565 to 1.373b3

http://www.n5na.net/orion/index.html

I used 1.373b3 at Field Day this year and had no failure problems in 24 
hours of heavy use.  I was very impressed with how smooth the original Orion 
ran and how well it performed with that firmware version.
