Let’s hope the upgrade is worth it! I’ll be out of the country tomorrow night so hopefully we can score something nice while I’m gone. Or wait until I come back 2nd week of Feb.

It's been confusing to me. They talk about an upgrade, but when you read about it, all they are doing is replacing the power components so that it is less likely to go out of service. Yes, that's very important, but when it is back online, it will be the same radar as before. So not an upgrade in performance, more of an upgrade in reliability. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
