Default 12Z software update

I just read a pdf doc. of the 12z software update dated 3/21/2007 #1.1.0.875/137. It appears the 12z now has Shift select on the modulation setting screen. Is this correct????? You can set polairty Standard or Invereted, Is this shift select??? If so I'll buy one

Yes, you can set it to positive or negative shift so that you can use the transmitter to control virtually any FM-PPM receiver.

Really? I can set my 12Z up for positive shift receivers now? Excellent! I do a lot of magazine reviews and every once in a while I have to fly something with a JR receiver. I've been hanging on to my old Hitec Eclipse 7 Tx for that purpose only. Looks like I can do something else with it now.... Will this upgrade be available for the 12FG any time soon?

Bax,
I've been wanting to upgrade my pattern radio to a 12z but have held off since I fly JR now. So, with shift select I can fly my spcm 649 JR receivers with this tranny???

Bax,

I purchased a 12MZ used, and have tried for over a month to register for the web site. I have filled out the forms and sent them in, called after a few weeks, and sent follow-up e-mails. Still haven't been registered. Is this delay normal, or is there someone in particular I need to talk/email to? Any help would be appreciated. I love the radio, but want to be able to get the software updates.

Thanks,

DK

You can control any positive or negative-shift PPM receiver. If the JR649 receiver is PPM, then you can control it with the 12Z or 14MZ by setting the shift.
