Upgrading the Firmware
From time-to-time MDS will offer upgrades to the transceiver firmware.
One version of the firmware provides core software resources for all
radio models. Uploading new firmware into the unit will not alter any
privileges provided by Authorization Keys and does not require the
transceiver to be taken off-line until you want to operate the unit from
the new firmware image in the unit.
