Ok here is what I have in my scanner up boot ver:F1.1 and up Appl: U1.7 My question is do I have to first update the last version of firmware of I could go directly to the new one that was just released. Sorry for the question but I dont want to ruin my 500.00 scanner.

Thank you for the help

Firmware updates are not incremental - you always install the latest one and that's it.

CPU U1.8 and use CPUUpdater_PSR-500-600-BootF10F11_U1.8.exe (for use with PSR-500/600 models with Boot Versions prior to 1.4)
then
DSP U1.4

It depends on the scanner. Go to their support sites and see - not all can be updated.

This is the GRE forum .. and the upgrade that is being referred to is for the GRE scanners, specifically the PSR500/600 models. Hope this helps. Most of the scanners you have listed are Uniden models .. so I would check their site for the latest upgrades.

Actually, his listed scanners are evenly split between GRE and Uniden.

The PRO-106 should have an update coming soon. It will be based on the new PSR-500/600 update; RadioShack has the code and will be releasing it to their web site after they do their own internal testing.
