You can't depend on the calibration being the same between versions, if changes are made to the DSP code and sometimes that happens your old data could be worthless. Worse than that it can create all sorts of weird problems. Personally when there is any kind of major update, I re-calibrate everything, and I do not use the old database. Typically I install the new version in a new folder and setup everything from scratch, once the new version has proved itself I then delete the older versions although I always keep the last official release around. But others have different preferences, that is what makes the world go around, that or the moment of inertia, I forget which. :-D Cecil K5NWA www.softrockradio.org www.qrpradio.com www.hpsdr.com "Blessed are the cracked, for they shall let in the light." _______________________________________________ FlexRadio mailing list FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archive Link: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ FlexRadio Knowledge Base: http://kb.flex-radio.com/ FlexRadio Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/
