 Hi Alastair! Is it warming up in Scotland?
A very pleasant 27C currently here :-)

 Your "Linn" issue has been indeed discussed 
previously here in the list, often times by me... 
Your "problematic" firmware has no support for 
the High Efficiency (HE-AAC) encoding profile.
Radiomodes with a bitrate <= 96 kbps use that, 
while the ones >=128 use the Linn compatible 
standard Low Complexity (LC) profile; actually, 
HE-AAC is LC too, better described as 
HE-AAC LC, as indicated by the MI log.

You can consult the recently re-linked in the list 
modes tables to accommodate your radiomode settings:
