bullmastiff 615 Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Sounds like someone's plugged it into a computer and updated the unit. now it won't work in the UK due to illegal frequency So they've sold it on eBay. Check on Google to see if there's a way to downgrade the firmware. Quote Link to post
Wales1234 5,570 Posted March 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 I bought it brand new from America bud Quote Link to post
bullmastiff 615 Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 That's why it won't work then. It's already got the new firmware on it. Just did a Google search and you can download the old version of the firmware, rename it and copy it across to you unit. That will put it back to the old version before the frequency was banned in Europe. 1 Quote Link to post
