The FLASH RF system consists of several RF stations, which provide RF power up to 10MW at 1.3GHz, 1.3ms and 10Hz repetition rate, each, for the superconducting cavities and the RF gun of the FLASH linear accelerator. During the last upgrade of the FLASH facility several modifications have been made also to the RF system. The oldest RF stations were constructed and manufactured by FNAL more than 15 years ago and have been replaced. Since one additional superconducting accelerator module has been added and one superconducting module and the RF gun have been replaced, modification and rearrangement of the RF waveguide distributions were required. An XFEL type waveguide distribution for the new accelerator module ACC7 and a distribution without individual phase shifters for the exchanged module ACC1 have been installed. A new waveguide distribution for the RF gun allows phase tuning by changing the gas pressure in the waveguides. It will also allow supply the RF gun by a 10MW multi beam klystron instead of the still used 5MW single beam klystron at a later point of time.
