Re: [FlexEdge] flex 6500
Hi Jim, That was no fake setup at Dayton this year!! I was there and it was as real as the setup I have at home right now with my 6500. The 6500 is the best receiver I have ever used, all things considered, even better than the 5000A I just sold (hard thing for me to say considering I loved my 5000A). I have been working DX, rag chewing with my local buddies on AM and getting fantastic audio reports, many unsolicited So, what questions do you have Jim? I will try and answer as best I can...

Re: [FlexEdge] Flex 6500 being returned

It just falls short of my MARS needs in so many ways, that I can't use it. Perhaps in coming months things will change as newer versions of SmartSDR and radio firmware are released, but perhaps not. But waiting months also means I can't return it to Flex Radio for a refund. I have no interest in listing my disappointments in SmartSDR and the radio. The main purpose of posting, is I had the thought there might be some people who are on a waiting list for months and months to get a Flex 6500 and are eager to get one, and perhaps Flex Radio would be happier if I just sold it to someone else instead of returning it for a refund. There's nothing technically wrong with the radio, it's just that the software does not currently yield the functionality that I need today. The only change I have made is to put Anderson power pole connectors on the power cord so I can plug it into my Rig Runner.

Re: [FlexEdge] Flex 6500 and JT65
I'm wondering exactly the same thing. I'm unclear, as it seems that the 6X00 line isn't going to use PSDR, exactly how this will play out. Are we going to have less-than-PSDR functionality in the initial hardware / software releases? 73, Mike Alexander - N8MSA amsct...@comcast.net - Original Message - From: AB1NJ Rob ab...@rjlp.com To: flexedge@flex-radio.biz Sent: Saturday, March 9, 2013 2:36:27 PM Subject: [FlexEdge] Flex 6500 and JT65 Hello all, this is my first post. I am seriously considering ordering a 6500. Never having owned a Flex I have some basic questions as to rig control. My question is how will the 6500 work with digital modes like JT65. I'm assuming that a program like JT65-HF will still be required, but will it all go through the single ethernet connection between computer and rig, or will an additional USB cable be required? How about HRD/DM780? What will the setup look like as far as sound card selection in JT65-HF etc. Forgive me if there are obvious answers to these questions, I just haven't seen them discussed.

Re: [FlexEdge] Flex 6500 Power Connector
The back of the 6500 looks like the power pole connectors just push in. There does not seem to be a positive snap-in connection. I have several power poles and if a strain is put on them, they fall out. The black plastic clips definitely hold two ends together, but on the back of the radio, there does not seem to be a way to hold the clips. The clips also extremely hard to remove and break about half the time when I move a radio from one vehicle to another. Is there something I am missing with this power pole execution?
