    James, I'm unclear what the problem is. If you're in the middle of an update and it appears that it is not completing then just power off the radio and restart it. All should be fine. If you have another issue please describe more clearly. Mack W4AX Alpha Tester

    Jim, If the radio light is violet then wait about 5 minutes. If the firmware doesn't complete then power off the radio, REMOVE THE DC Power from the radio for one minute, and reboot. All should be fine. Trust me, as an Alpha tester since the very beginning sometimes, though very infrequently, these things happen.' Mack W4AX Alpha Tester

    the radio power switch doesn't work. I tried turning off the power supply, i'll try again and wait a few minutes. but when I did this before the radio automatically turned on in update mode.
