Broadcast Remote Reprogramming Menu Broadcast reprogramming is used to upgrade the firmware of all radios in a network. If your
network contains a mix of radios with 2.x and 3.x version firmware, it is normal to see the
status message “Some Remotes Failed Programming”.
For example, if you select 2.x firmware to reprogram, only the older remotes will accept the
