The latest Host/DSP is R09.01.02

Host R07.00.00 or higher will give you 850 chans.

If your radio has old firmware, programming it with the latest CPS will not add any new features unless you have the latest firmware to match..

What would one expect to pay to get a new flash on a 5K from the depot? My 5K is missing the digital ID display feature among other things and I would like to get it upgraded in the future. It has Host: R09.00.00
DSP: R09.00.00

Thanks

Well Q53 FPP is around $150-ish.. Couldn't tell you a turn around time for it at the depot though.. You wont be able to get the depot to "turn on" Q52 FPP in your radio.. You may have to take alternative routes for that one...
