Phil, Yes, in my estimation (not agreed with by Flex, both Eric and John have both thumbs down my take on this), a good low noise mic pre-amp is a fine addition to the Flex set up. I use an inexpensive Beringher. In a thread a few weeks ago, I suggested this fix to a fellow Flexer that was

I need to clarify Flex's position. A mic preamp is not required to operate the SDR1000-there is sufficient gain included in the software to run just about any low level microphone. We have not done a good job of documenting the various procedures to achieve the desired result; this is somethig

The BandText table simply denotes whether you should be able to transmit in that band. The actual checking of the frequency is deeper in the code. Please contact me privately for information about unlocking the console for legitimate applications (different IARU plan, MARS, etc). Eric

Please use a great deal of caution when adjusting the output mode of the Delta 44. Switching from -10dBv to +4dBu takes the voltage from a safe 0.98VRMS max to a whopping 4.3VRMS max. This higher voltage will almost surely damage the SDR-1000 (specifically, IC2 on the TRX board) if you were to
