I've loaded a slightlt modified vesrion of Fresh 1.1 but have noticed much quicker battery drain. Is there anything anyone can point me to try and correct? I see that there is an updated radio for fresh 2.0 but haven't seen anything for 1.1. Is there one?
 
What do you mean by you "loaded a slightly modified version" of fresh 1.1? Did you load fresh and then modify it yourself? If so, what changes did you make that may affect the battery?

As for a Radio Update, why do you think you need it? Is your signal strength not good? Have you done any investigating to see what is using your battery? Apps like Spare parts will tell you what is keeping your system awake, which is where I would suggest starting.

If there is an upgrade for Fresh 1.1 it is not on his download page. I remember seeing one a while ago, but don't remember if it was for 1.1

Yes Fresh 1.1 with modification to the lock screen and other small tweaks on the fresh kitchen. The only thing I added back on is the Amazon mp3 app. I have used Spare Parts but haven't been able to pin point anything specific.
As far as the radio goes, I do have a weak signal (especially at home) and even where I have a good signal (5-6 bars) it fluctuates often going down to 2-3 and then back up.
I'm not sure if a new radio would help or not?
