    Hi Andy, The radio ships with the basic version of the latest software. To get the additional functionality, you need to purchase SmartSDR+. Go to Settings, Radio Setup, Radio tab. At the bottom you will see two green buttons, one to get SmartSDR+ and one to get SmartSDR+ Early Access. The Early Access option is $100 more, but gets you immediate access when a new version is released instead of waiting for 30 days. Be sure to only pick one option. Since 4.1.15 was released more than 30 days ago, it would be available now with either license option.

    The SmartSDR+ license gets you free functionality upgrades for a year. Bug fix releases are free. If you don't renew the SmartSDR+ license after a year, you still keep anything that you already purchased.

    All of this is available on the 8400 except for ESC - that one requires an 8600 with its dual SCUs.

    Are you sure about the price difference? I thought the promotional pricing ended. And that Plus is $199 and Early Access is $299.

    Sorry, I corrected it to show $100 more.

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.
