Darrin,
Can I update from v2.8.0.194 to v2.8.0.306 directly without any problems?

I am using an HP Z440, 64 bit with Xeon CPU E5-1650 v4 @3.6 GHZ

Windows 10 Pro for WS, version 22H2

Thank you

Jerry

versions published on the KE9NS site will not affect after version 2.7.2 it is clearly written

If you are currently running .194, you can just install the .306

However.... New features added to PowerSDR since .194, may cause your database file to become corrupted after the upgrade to .306

So, I suggest you do a setup->export database before performing any upgrade.

So if you find a problem, you can do a setup->import database

And YES.. it will not touch the FlexRadio v2.7.2 version. That version resides in a different sub-folder than my v2.8.0 version.

Thank you Darrin and IK8HCG!

The update worked flawlessly. I did not have to import the backup database.
