I seem to remember that Yaesu changed some of their
communications
protocalls and current software uses the newest. You may
have to
get a software upgrade from yaesu.
I also seem to recall that the software, on the 990, is
not
field upgradable.
Time to talk to yourself in short unfinished
sentences<grin>
