Default Register Settings on MAX2771 #5

Hi, I am trying to folow the MAX2771 datasheet and they say right at the beggining of the "Detailed Description" chapter on page 17 that certain values must be programmed into the register 0x00 and 0x09. I have noticed that the pocket_conf app omits this. I am not sure how important is it ( MAXIM has not answered yet) but since they say that it must be done whenever the IC is power-cycled it seems important. Hence I have created the default hexadecimal .conf file reflecting this requirement and programmed the ICs. After reading the register values with pocket_conf -h it is obvious that only register 0x00 was correctly altered. Register 0x09 stayed intact. After examining of the sdr_conf.c file I found out that the register 0x09 is not considered here. Is it possible to look into it since it might have impact on the quality of samples. Thank you in advance.

Here is the conf file. Please note the extention was changed to TXT since it will not let me upload files with CONF extention pocket_default_hex.txt
