Is there a fix for the rollover problem for this instrument short of
replacing the receiver? In searching the archives, this is the only
solution that I see.

Thanks

Hi

Simple answer on all of this stuff:

Once you hit rollover, you either ignore it or start replacing hardware.

The companies that make this stuff stopped supporting firmware upgrades for the gear
we now have a long time ago. That is one of the reasons we now can buy it cheap Even
when upgrades were available, there often were support licensing issues that made them
crazy expensive to do. Yes, they could just give everything away. That’s not going to happen.
