14MZ / 12Z / FX-40 Software Update 2007-03-21

[Banker1]

Gentlemen:

I just purchased a 14MZ. The current firmware is 4.2, 1.0.5, and 1.13. I noticed that there are several updates. Do I need to update all or just the most current?

Thanks

You only need to install the latest -

[4.20(0)/1.1.0.1766/1.37] 2007-03-21-T14MZ_1766.zip

Hi, I have to say first that I found this forum very interesting and useful.

I have a 12Z which I just received from HK. The radio came in 72Mhz, which I wanted, but the number of available frequencies were restricted.. my previous 9Z had access to all the 72band, and this one was limited..

After playing a bit with it (I opened the box an hour ago), I upgraded the software to 1.37 and found (thanks to this forum) the service menu (good, no more need for a special connector instead of the campac module in the 9Z)

I then changed the area to Americas, finding it strange that I could not select 72mhz for Europe.. I am in Europe and 72 is allowed here.. (LO only) well, once in Area America, I have access to all 72 mhz frequencies, but, but, but, when I start the readio it says Mistatched RF module...

My module has a sticker CN on it.. which I believe means china..

I hope that there is a trick here to make the TX module international, and that I do not need to buy a new TX module for this brand new radio..

thanks in advance for your replies..

Papymouzot,
you don't need to buy a new module just to reprogram the eeprom.:wink:
Have a look at this file:
EDIT:
As requested by the moderator I deleted the link. It has already been done by WillJames but for any reason it came back and all the last messages concerning this link were removed too...
Sorry for those who were interested but you still can PM me.

It is a donkey or emule link if you don't know. I hope it is not forbidden here.:roll:

Good luck!

Hi MZFAN, does this software works with a 14MZ Radio?

Hi MZFAN
Is the T14mzUtility.exe for 14mz?
