Actually, Metis v1.3 is compatible with the current version of  
PowerSDR v1.19.3.4.diversity20 (12MAY2011) and Mercury v6.4 with no  
changes required since only two Mercury receivers are implemented  
(Atlas comm line assignments were made only for Merc3 and Merc4) and  
the broadband spectrum feature is not used.

It should be noted that incompatibility arises with Metis v1.3 only if  
three or more Mercury boards are used simultaneously (no released  
program does that presently anyway) or if the broadband spectrum is  
used with more than a single Mercury board present.   I will post a  
new version of Mercury firmware before long that handles three or more  
Mercury boards appropriately and is compatible with broadband spectrum  
communications when multiple Mercury boards are present.

Thanks, Phil!
