Check here but doesn't look like it.

Just updated mine, got a bit worried as it kept giving me a warning about not having a genuine Phoenix usb lead ??. Took three attempts of removing USB and restarting Phoenix.

Had me worried there for a minute.

Cheers,

Simon

Ps. Can anyone tell me how to get the hold onto my hold swtich. Can only ever get it too work on the Flap channel. I'm using a DSX9

Got mine to update eventually.
Kept getting half way through and then failing
Guess the update site was a bit busy.

2402 is not on the excluded list! and im sure i supplied a sim and adaptor a week or so ago to a guy with this tx is so i think its possible you need a mono plug rather than stereo as comes standard
