Problems with PowerFLARM 6.06.8249 firmware

We have also noticed a decrease in range with the update to 6.05.xxxx firmware.
Pretty easy to document with the Flarm Range checker using last years files for comparison.

Yesterday I updated to 6.06 and upgraded my Flarmnet file and lost the Flarmnet feature at least with the other glider I was testing with.
The Flarmnet feature might be the result of updating some for the Flarm information on the other glider. (Mode S ID, did not change)
Going to test today with a glider that their flarm setting has not been changed to see if it is my Flarm or the other Flarm causing the competition # not to show on my butterfly display.

I had plenty of flights since I upgraded and did not notice any degradation.. In the contrary I noticed significant improvement in range with couple of friends but this was due to antenna issues they had in the past. Detection range seem to be 2-4 miles, occasionally further. As for contest IDs, indeed some folks no longer showing their contest ID, but most do. Not sure what is causing this.

Checked flarmnet feature with another flarm today, it worked just fine. So pretty sure issue was that the 1st glider flarmnet setting had just not updated on the flarmnet website yet.
