Hi,
It is available on the Japanese site.

1735204625095.png

It appears to be the same updates that were made for the DV10 firmware 2410A.
Note: One person reported that there was an issue on the DV10 after the update, relating to memory channels.

73, Dave

Thanks - doesn't help when that page shows 25 December 2022 at the top! AoR could certainly makes things a bit clearer.

I loaded 2412A from the AOR Japan site. The radio was hanging on a P25 Phase 1 frequency. I went back to 2205A and the issue was gone. I'll stick with 2205A for now. I also had a memory channel issue. Only even numbered memories would tune via dial. A full reset and re-load of the memories solved this one.

Wow,
What's up with AOR? Don't they beta test their updates? This is pitiful
I'm in the States and it should be noted that this firmware update has only been released in Japan. The AOR USA website does not show the update. I have no issues being an unofficial beta tester. I reloaded 2412A and am testing a GSSI list on a TETRA system. AOR and their quirks, fun, fun fun.

I found this thread this morning because I want to perform the firmware update on my AOR AR-DV1.

My firmware is 2205A.

I couldn't open up the links above.

I did find these from AOR USA, however.

@SigIntel8600, based on your issue, I am wondering if should hold off, however.


If you are comfortable with doing firmware updates and enjoy pulling your hair out, go for it. You can always downgrade back down to 2205A if you have issues. As always, do so at your own risk.

I finally took a few minutes and performed the firmware update and I am now on 2412AN.

I also reviewed the improvements. DCR mode is NXDN format.

AR-DV1 FIRMWARE UPDATE v2412A RELEASE NOTES

(c)2025 AOR, LTD.

Feb. 3, 2025

Feature Improvements:

1. DCR Mode - Whitening Code (WC):
- Added Whitening Code (WC) functionality to selective reception features.
AUTO and manual code settings are supported:
AUTO Mode: Automatically decodes the voice regardless of the Whitening Code set by the transmitter. The detected code number is displayed on-screen. Manual Mode: Allows manual selection of a Whitening Code from 001 to 511.
How to Access This Feature:
Set the receive mode to "D-CR".
[Press the large dial twice] → [D-CR WC]

2. DCR Mode - Auto-Descramble:
- The 15-bit auto-descramble function now works even when the transmitter has enabled the "Selective Call" feature.
No additional settings are required.

3. DCR Mode - Scan & Search Enhancements:
- The Scan & Search feature now bypasses signals containing only a carrier or data. However, it will still stop on encrypted signals, which cannot be decoded.
No additional settings are required.
