Yes! Keep the old version of Merlin if you can.

And a brief tale. While biking in the deserts of Arizona we used Merlin to
help us tap into birds along the way. We emerged from the desert and then
into one of the largest Pecan plantations in the country. We heard a
Peregrine, then an eagle, and a red tail. Merlin heard them too. Hmmm. We
were skeptical. Turns out it was a recording the orchard folks were playing
to keep the songbirds from eating the Pecans.
