+==== Version 1.027 ====
+  *Changes that affect both Remote Mode and Radio Modes:
+  *Improve transmit audio performance in FM mode.
+**Changes that affect Remote Mode only:**
+  *Increased Ethernet Handling priority in Remote Mode.
+  *Modified the Remote Mode displayed FAIL counter to include
+    *1 = Number of Receive Overruns detected by the Network IC (NIC).
+      *Shows up as the lower three digits of the FAIL counter.
+    *2 = Number of Network Chip Status Failures reported by the NIC.
+      *Shows up as the top four digits of the FAIL counter.
+  *For either of the two failures, the firmware performs a fast hardware reset of the network chip which takes less than 10 ms before it is back to streaming audio again. Solutions could include getting a better router, cleaning up network cables, providing proper RFI and EMI protection on all cabling, etc. If Either of these conditions persist, then they will result in very poor remote receive and transmit audio performance of the OMNI-VII. The firmware performs a hardware reset of the Network IC. This process takes 10ms before audio is back up and streaming. Solutions could include getting a better router, cleaning up network cables, providing proper RFI and EMI protection, etc.
+  *Menu entrance / exit clears the Network Receive Overrun counter.
+  *Menu entrance / exit clears the Network Chip Status Failure counter.
+  *Removed the SMeter and Transmit power / SWR from the front panel display. Improves network packet reception and handling.
+  *Removed the update of the various counters in remote mode while transmit is active.
+  *Modified the TRIP data input buffer error handling algorithm.
+  *Increased the “no communications timeout” for turning RIP Off automatically to 2 minutes.
+    *RIP is turned off if the heartbeat command from the PC is not sent to the rig on a regular basis.
+    *On networks with 95% of the 10Mb bandwidth loaded the OMNI-VII will sporadically missed the RIP OFF command.

+**[[this>./firmware/588_setup_v1.035.exe_.zip|Download 1.035]]**
+  *Improved Auto Tuner Power Settling for reliability
+  *Increased DSP output level in Sideband for hardware reliability
+==== Version 1.036 ====
+**[[this>./firmware/588_setup_v1.036.exe_.zip|Download 1.036]]**
+  *Improved Ethernet Audio reliability
+  *Improved handling of broken Ethernet packets, net effect was to improve Ethernet packet handling for control and audio streaming.
+  *Removed support for uncompressed audio via the Ethernet. (note, when using third party programs, ensure you enable compression for RIP and TRIP, otherwise the radio will not start "RIPing" audio)
+  *Added a bit to the ?T query to identify that the version does NOT support uncompressed audio. Refer to the programmers reference guide for more details.
+  *Increased priority of Ethernet audio packet handling. Preserving DSP functioning within allotted time. (e.g. AN, NR, etc. all still worked at least as well as version 1.035.)
+  *Improved handling of QRN/impulse type noise so it wouldn't prematurely load up AGC.
+  *Added Bandwidth to the rig memory recall/restore. This was added so that customers could store settings for digital modes using sideband as the mode but wanting a narrower bw filter. **Caveat, when going from 1.035 to 1.036, when one does a recall, the BW will get recalled as 12kc, simply adjust the bw to the desired value, and then re-save the VFO to Memory. From then on the bandwidth for that specific memory will get recalled properly. This should be done for all memories the user has already stored.**
+  *Added Memory Recall (*Rnn, nn=0..99) to the CAT interface
+  *Added Memory Write (*Snn, nn=0..99) to the CAT interface
+    *Note, for the above two commands, there is not a single query, once a memory recall is performed, then each parameter can be queried via the CAT interface individually.
+  *Improved logic on programming the DDS to help prevent the radio from being off frequency. Basically made the timing of the code a bit more robust, should help those who have seen the rig transmit off frequency, a very very rare occurrence.
