Frank,
Yes, you can download the KVH Flash Wizard program from this web site:
Join http://www.kvh.com/flashwizard
You will need to fill in your dealer and contact info to download.

Also, this link is for instructions to update your RF board software:
http://www.kvh.com/Wizard/pdfs/540255A_Flash_A5.pdf

You should insure your laptop is not connected to the AC power supply when doing the software update to your system.
Best of luck!

NOT connected? Really? Does anyone have an explanation for this?

You should unplug your laptop from the AC power supply before updating your KVH Tracvision RF board. If the KVH Tracvision senses any voltage fluctuations on the connection, it will go into the DSS satellite reload routine as well as corrupt your RF software load.

This is from the KVH PDF instructions for loading software updates.
