Subject: More Laptop Info
To add to the Laptop computer debate/info,here is my recent experience,
which I hope someone finds useful
I picked up a bargain on a Sony Model NS255DS laptop (Canadian bilingual
version of a PCG-7153L) loaded with Vista Home Premium 64. Processor is a
Intel
I'm just curious about the '5000 transverter field upgrade. Why is the
field upgrade limited to the 30W version
and the 60W version requires a factory install?

Barry,
The way I understand it, it is the power handling capability of the built-in
connectors used by the VU. To get to 60 watts, separate power wiring must
be added. Maybe someone from Flex will give a better explanation.

That is it, exactly. A power connector has to be added to the PA board for the
60 watt version.

Later this year. An announcement will be made on the web site and both
reflectors when there is a targeted ship date.

Thanks Bob
That explains it.
BTW, the few of us that still have soldering irons spewing toxic lead
and rosin gases--
we may like to take on the challenge and add the required connector.
I'll go dark now.

Tim, Is there room in the box for both the second receiver and the transverter,
assuming that you already have the ATU installed?
Thanks,
Mike

Yes. The RX2 installs below the heat sink on underneath the TRX board. Both
the ATU and V/U-mod install on top of the heat sink above the PA. It will fill
up the space in the chassis, but leave enough room for adequate cooling and air
flow.

Tim, If that fills up the box, any plans for an expansion chassis if Flex
comes out with any more goodies?

I don't think there are any additional goodies on the drawing board for the
FLEX-5000. But if there are, I am sure Ken will figure out how to wedge them
in :-)

Tim, Well, there's always that empty fire wire port on the back of the radio,
would be nice if Flex came out with a line of Linear Amp, say from 500 watts,
to legal limit that was totally controlled via the fire wire. Or better yet a
modular Amp that you could add 500 watt RF modules and power
