Systems decided that because we cannot have the customers do the
upgrading themselves because of the above reasons, we would charge a
nominal fee of only $20 including shipping within United States to
upgrade an old CS700 to the new CS700A. For customers outside the
United States, we will charge $15 plus shipping. For those customers it
would be advantageous to ship multiple radios at the same time.
To upgrade from a CS700 to a CS700A requires the following steps:
1. Get a copy of the tuning parameters.
2. Take the radio apart to get to the PCB
3. Short two points on the PCB and turn on Power
4. Load New Driver
5. Load New Firmware
6. Convert new tuning parameters to new turning parameters
7. Use service Monitor to tune certain parameters if necessary
8. Initialize code plug
There are three issues with having the customers do this themselves.
(1) If you make a mistake you might brick the radio and could take at least 4 hours to recover.
(2) If you short the wrong spot on the radio you might damage the radio.
(3) We have no way of protecting our intellectual property from being copied by other manufacturers.

Convert the CS700 to a CS750 requires the changing of a memory chip.
This means unsoldering an existing IC and soldering in a new IC. Then
you following the above 8 instructions. For that the price is $60
including shipping. For customers outside the United States, we will
charge $55 plus shipping. For those customers it would be advantageous
to ship multiple radios at the same time.
