DCS 1394 problem
Hi Ccchiong,Regarding the message SW upgrade I think it is a normal message, when you reboot you will reboot to the software version you have installed on your Elgar/verdi.If your stack is "old" and you have not upgraded the software it could be a...

Kimber Select 1136 compared to 1130

Dcs Verona vs Scarlatti master clock
Hi,I would be quite surprised if there was a big difference in the performance from the Verona to the scarletti clock.I have sent in my verona clock due to a power up problem, received it back with information that it now was equal to the new vers... 
dCS stack with ML Descent
