    Hallo,
    in dem Ordner sind diese 4 bin. enthalten.
    Jetzt läuft SO18.003 / CP V 01.06
    zum Update steht SO 18.11 zur Verfügung.

    Ich will aber keine REC Funktion sonder den Speicherplatz,
    ist es Möglich die
    P18.11 zu flashen?

    Danke

    1. hi, if you don’t want the recording function, you can update your firmware from recording one to CSV.

  2. I have updated correctly as above but I can still only have 10,000 contacts, what else can I try?

  3. Sorry forgot to mention, my radio model is RT3S, CPS Software Version: V01.12, Hardware Version V02.01, MCU Version V018.011

    I have RT3S (no GPS) and I would like the .csv version firmware, I can only find RT3S firmware for the two GPS versions.

    I can only see two files available for download not four?

    1. hi, we are so sorry for this, now you can download from our website, choose th RT3S firmware, you will see the gps and Non-GPS firmware.
