    PRO-106 Error?

    I purchased a PRO-106 on eBay. The radio turns on but after the welcome screen, it goes to "Waiting for DSP." I have done all of the "0" + tests. I have also upgraded the CPU to 1.9 (which worked fine) But the DSP upgrade to 1.4 would not take. It errors out in the testing step with a message...

    PRO-106: Cannot enter any frequency between 796.996875 and 805 MHz.

    Apologies if this has been mentioned in another thread (I didn't see any previous mention). On the PRO-106 Wiki page, it states in an update, that there is a loss of the tactical frequency range above 796.996875. It also mentions older PRO-106's can recieve that range. Mine is date code 08A08...
