Upgrading Icom 7300 Firmware

You do not have to do upgrades serially now. Long ago there was once a requirement for an intermediate step.  Rob, NC0B

One should always keep one's firmware current so as to benefit from undocumented improvements and code optimisations. Adam VA7OJ/AB4OJ

Icom 7610 Warning if you Decide to Update Early

Note:  HDSDR throws a "Communication Failure. Cannot access Radio." error message" when Firmware V1.40 is installed and initialized. This should be fixed before releasing to Regions 1/2.

Thank You

If you decide to upgrade early I strongly suggest reading the posts from the forum links below. I will wait until it is released in the US and everything is in English instead of using Google translate.
