    You may need to start a help desk. That sounds like an SD card failure.

    Replacing a micro SD card in the radio. Connecting power and internet so it can call home to load up software.

    SD card fixed it? Can one have a backup SD card ? I assume the radio hardware is fine .

    Just a blank SD card?  Any specific format?  I have the same issue on my 6400 (non M) and I live in Bermuda.  So sending back the radio isn't an inexpensive option for me.

    first you will need to initiate a help desk ticket

    and

    then the staff will work with you to get the proper SD card ...
    i believe the SD card has the boot s/w

    and

    they will send instructions on how to change out the cards

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.
