It came out for the Radio Shack models before the GRE models. Here is the firmware on the RS site. Here is the link on RR that discusses this change (to the PRO-164).Not to fan the flames But, hopefully RS comes out with the update for the 163/164 too.

Turn off the scanner, disconnect the cable. Press and hold PROG while you power on the scanner. You should see the message "waiting for PC/IF" on the scanner.Using Windows 7 I updated my RS PRO104 to 1.08 but when I do a GRE 300 I get as far as the scanner saying "wait for PC/IF" and then nothing. I use a RS 20-047 without the attachment.
In the past I upgraded the GRE 300 to Firmware 1.07 but nada this time.
Nope.....Start the software...guess i'm not doing it right cause nothing happens with the scanner..I can't get a page to come up on a PC like when I did the RS scanner, which has the boxes for the com port and test. I tried it on a windows 7 and windows XP.. When I go to GRE page and click on the download box I get boxes to download and unzip but that ends with a box saying I have successfully unzipped 5 parts and thats the end of it. Nothing happens with the scanner beyond "Wait for PC/IF"
I can't upload the upgrade either in my desktop vista or laptop windows 7 machines. I am wondering if it might be due to the fact that I have a Canadian version that is Boot 1.0
Firmware version C 1.07 note that there is a C in front of the version number. I am assuming that this means Canadian version.
This is my information when I boot up holding down the program key.
Boot ver:CF1.00
App1 Ver:C 1.07
CPU SW upgrade
Wait for PC/IF
That is correct, you would need to get the Canadian version of the firmware updates. I'm not sure when that would be available.
