Here is a list of the changes included in each new version of our programs.  Big Deal Items (Major Releases only) are shown in Red Font.

Fun Fact: we have 4 different kinds of releases: 

• Major Releases: 
  • The second number changes (PAT 2.10.0)
  • You should upgrade immediately because we either found a nasty bug or put in an awesome new feature.
• Minor Releases:
  • The third number changes (PAT 2.10.1)
  • You should upgrade, but its not urgent.  We added something of little importance somewhere in the program.
• Test Releases:
  • The fourth number will change (PAT 2.10.2.1)
  • We only send these to individual users for testing purposes. 
• Earth Shattering Releases:
  • The first number will change (PAT 3.0.0)
  • Reserved for a change so big we'll probably need a music video with a marching band to properly communicate how big of a deal this change is.  ​

• LMP P2P, Units with no Data:  Even if a unit is tracked, it may not have data in the UNT and TRN files to support tracking.  When this happens, we allow the name to appear in dropdown displays, but we now append "(No Data)" to the unit name string.
