   The last2.exe was made as a troubleshooting tool to
enable owners of 505 radios to reset the customized cal table to  
default values instead of sending the unit back to the factory
in case of scrambled  cal tables. I am not familiar with anything 
called last1.exe. 
The tech that produced the basic program for his own use is no 
longer at Kachina. I am not sure if I have a copy of the original basic 
script. If the program doesn't have connection to the radio it won't run. 
If it runs and there is no change resulting, the rig should be returned 
for repair. 

The program should  be run after contacting us to determine if it is necessary.

If you have questions about your radio I will be happy to 
exchange e-mails. I am the tech that does the 505 repairs.

make a copy on a floppy or on hard drive.
not in the kachina group.
example A:\ or C:\last2.exe.

physically connect radio to com port 2 (program is set
for this port). turn radio on at control head.

insure that no kachina applications have been run after
boot up. and that no other applications are using com 2.

choose windows start button, then choose Run,
type A:\ or C:\last2.exe (depending on location)
 
follow any instructions and close or exit.
the 505 should now operate normally, the S-meter
will probably be incorrect at low signal conditions.
