Hi Joe,
Chances are when the system crashed the user settings file was corrupted.
See the following link (2nd heading) for how to delete it so it can be
recreated.

As far as the reason for the crash, I too suspect RF got into the system
(radio/PC).
WHY WHY WHY does the ARRL continue to ask people who are software defined radio
virgins to review SDR's? They don't ask newly licensed hams with no experience

RigSync 1.01 is available for download at

This is a release candidate. Known bugs have been fixed, but the main change
is that the new version is non-expiring. The previous beta will expire on
12/1/2009.
Let me know of any problems or suggestions.
Enjoy!

Hey, a fascinating discussion! As the owner of one of the first
Flex5000A's (one with no common mode choke on the mike jack) I will
freely admit to being one of those who were clueless as far as what I
was getting myself into. And I will admit that it took a lot longer
than a few months

The review problem is greater than just a novice ham reviewing newer
technology. The person who reviewed the IC-7600 did not understand what
roofing filters are supposed to do. We have also gotten to read completely
unsupportable statements over the years, such as comparing radio B to radio A

With all due respect this is precisely what you DONT want. The reviewer can
reveal his expertise so an average ham can judge his skill set vs the expert
reviewer. That should in no way therefore detract from the veracity of the
review. Otherwise the reviewer should disclose he is a

I need a way to QSY VFO-B very quickly when split. I'm using CwSkimmer to
find were the DX station is listening but by the time I place the mouse over
VFO-B it's to late or I get in a hurry and place the cursor on the wrong
number. The mouse wheel really needs to control VFO-B while split and
My solution is to put the FIXED freq station on VFO-B (use AB) and then
chase with VFO A.
Works good in bull sessions where the stations are too many hertz off freq.

Ed,
Turn on MultiRX place mouse over VFO B. Hold right mouse button down
you can drag the VFO B frequency with the mouse. If you do not want to
listen to VFO B frequency, you can always turn the VFO B audio down with
the slider.

Myself and Chad, W1CEG, have a special port of PowerSDR, *not* for use

Scott, Thanks for your input. I like what your doing with the MX620 mouse.

PSDR needs to be in focus for the control key and mouse wheel to work, I

I feel that QST should have had the same person who did the 5000 review do
the 3000. Although the current reviewer compared the two radios, it was
clear he never operated a Flex. In that sense, much of his credibility is
in question. All the comments that hams make (including the various

The ability to tune VFO-B with the mouse wheel when the red x-hairs are active

Hi Guys,
Can anybody in Australia recommend a good firewire card to use with the flex

I would prefer to buy locally so if there are issues I can send it back or

purchase?

You are correct that a file was corrupt in DDUtil. A file called
