limited edition free upgrades forever?

I have several Flex radios.  One of these is a Flex 6500 Limited Edition.  It was my impression that the Limited Edition models had free software upgrades forever.  However, I just downloaded and installed 3.0, and I'm being presented with the Licensed Required dialogue.  Is this correct?  Please clarify.  Thanks. -- Carl N8VZ

    Free upgrades were only for version two. You must pay for version three 73 Mack W4AX Alpha Team

    Limited Edition radios received the v2 upgrade for free.  Unless a second license was pre-paid for, v3 will need to be purchased.

    OK. Thanks for the clarification.  I guess my memory was faulty.  73 de Carl N8VZ

    My memory is slightly different.  I believe the deal was that you got one additional free upgrade.  So if you did not upgrade to V2 already you could upgrade to V3 for free.

    With my 6500 LE I paid for one year of SSDR upfront and got 2 years for "free".
    This was later changed to versions 1,2 & 3 instead of years.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
