Hi All! Just purchased my first 5k. The current firmware is 12.00.01. I know that's not the most recent, but is that ancient? Just want to judge if I really HAVE to go get the firmware updated right away or if it should be fine for now. Is a firmware upgrade something I can do? If not, how much will one run me - I haven't heard that 12.00.01 is extremely old, just curious.

Your R12.00.01 firmware isn't really all that old.. Current is R15.00.08, and there never was a R13.xx.xx released publicly. It jumped from R12.xx.xx to R14.xx.xx.

R12 was actually a very stable range, including the CPS. You really won't gain anything earth shattering by jumping up a couple versions.

Hope that helps.

Great! Thanks. I do have CPS 15 which I am happy about. Thanks so much for the help I was just curious because I haven't owned this radio before - it comes tomorrow and I can't wait.
