Re: evolver dpf revision ?

2003-09-21 by thligrdd

There are currently two OS revisions, to coincide with two different 
hardware revisions of the evolver. The first 100 or so used the 
onboard VCA of the curtis chip and the 1.0 OS, but due to some 
interference that occured in a few evolvers as a result of that, all 
later evolvers use an external VCA circuit, and the 1.1 OS. The two 
OS revisions are identical to the end-user. 

We won't know if there are any problems with the evolvers getting old 
until they actually get old ;)

They're all less than a year old, so it's really hard to say...the 
person who recently posted with a possible dead evolver is the first 
I've heard of, though.
