Absolutely! The firmware currently on the radio dates back to the one of
the earliest production dates and has never been updated, and as a result,
the radio crashes often during contest conditions. I understand that
1.373b5 is considerably more stable than the much earlier versions. I'll
know for certain this time next week!
