For the record - I have both a GRE PSR-600 and a RS PRO-197... I can't remember which way I tried to go, but one of them wouldn't recognize a firmware update from the other one awhile back (before the Grande Rebanding)... so there is some sort of difference, at least with those two.

Updates from RS won't work in a GRE and GRE updates won't work in an RS.
All 4 radios are uP App 2.1 and DSP App 1.4

According to RR, the Pro 18 is a bit disabled. If it's like the GRE/RS versions,
they won't take GRE updates.
