Tree, when the radio goes into production, will users be able to 
download and install further DSP updates, or will they be stuck with the 
version they get when they buy the radio?

(In the back of my mind I am thinking of the PowerSDR DSP package, which 
has gone through hundreds of updates since it first appeared, and it is 
always possible to bring the radio right up to date at any time).
