There is an update for ADS Bitsy and ADS Bitsy Plus. On these boards, the COM1 and COM3 modem control signals are reversed and CD and RI are transposed. To correct these problems, download and apply the following patch: diff-2.4.19-rmk2-ads2-com.

The precompiled images for ADS Bitsy and ADS Bitsy Plus do not have this patch applied. The next ads patch will include these corrections.
