And you can disable check for PTA record in the driver code. Maybe it would be smart to make it configurable (?). More interesting question is if presence of PTA entry affects firmware and arbiter. I do not have a good answer for that, but I can guess it depends on actual logical values on the PTA interface. > Can I just delete the PTA record? ?(Easier said than done since it is > a binary file... but it can be done.) > But why can't you use SDD from your distribution, calibrated for your RF design? It can be really huge difference in calibration parameters with different FEMs, antennas etc. SDDs are independent from the firmware and you can use an SDD with any firmware version. Dmitry
