Rick,

I don't have that firmware.  But I do not believe changing the FW will 
fix the problem.  I believe that problem comes and goes with temperature 
variations.

The fix is to get a filter to connect to the output of the Orion between 
the Orion and Acom.  I researched this last year and found a filter. 
But I sold my Acom 1000 and now use a different amp.  So that fixed it 
for me.

I think Barry, N1EU,  has the info on the filter.
