+Changes in the Orion 565 v3.032x7b.ruf file:
+These changes apply to the Main Rx only.  The Sub Rx was not changed.
+    * Added selection of S-Meter input to Other Menu.  Selection is AGC Level or RF Signal.  Default is AGC Level.  Selection is retained over power cycles.
+    * S-meter reading is compensated for ATTN setting, Preamp setting, signal reduction caused by the analog hardware AGC with strong (> S-9+35) signals, and the RF Gain control.
+    * S-meter is calibrated so S-9 is 50 uV across 50 Ohms at the antenna terminals.
+    * S-meter calibration routine updated to correct for a missing step in the table.
+    * S-meter ballistics follow the Hang Time and Decay Rate of currently selected AGC profile.
+    * Serial Commands to change either VFO frequency were restored to previous functionality by removing the band checking.  Note that a serial command setting the Main Rx VFO outside of a ham band may cause the VFO knob to not change frequency.
+Note:  Be sure to do a Master Reset, a RAM Clear, a second Master Reset, and finally, a power cycle.  This insures that anything left in memory from a previous release will be erased.
