thank you. I seldom use the sweep at all. now and again using the sweep 
causes the radio to fail requiring a reboot.

Version 3.026 is the firmware for the Orion II.  I assume you mean Version 
3.025 for the Orion (565).

So yes I have tried V3 for the 565.  I have the original sub-receiver.  I 
have modified the logic board for Version 2 and up firmware as per the 
instructions on the Ten-Tec site.  As Barry pointed out yesterday you do NOT 
need to do this mod to install V3.  You will however lose the sweep if you 
do not do the mod.  But if you are already running V2 firmware the upgrade 
to V3 is easy.


Is it worth upgrading.  I say a huge YES!

I wish to know if anyone has tried the V3 firmware with an Orion 565
original (no modifications to the radio at all).
