Ed,
Just a small correction: Apple computers do not 'run well disguised versions
of Linux'. Mac OS X (and iOS on the iPhone/iPad) are based on BSD. BSD is
another Unix variant.
Porting non-graphical software between Linux, BSD and OS X is usually quite
easy. Porting graphical

Not to be a pain, but just for your info: There appears to be a bit of an
anomaly in the Transceiver DSP Performance Comparison graphic in the 6000
Series brochure. For the 6700 the graphic says Texas
We have not published a picture of the insides of the FLEX-6000s.
Although I suspect someone from Dayton that took pictures of it will.

It looks like there is a wealth of great ideas in this new design.
First and foremost, the computer is inside the radio box where it belongs.
This has come up repeatedly on the reflector and is really the key to
finding the way forward. The server/client architecture offers a world of

I wasn't at the Dayton Hamvention this time, but imagine if I show up at
the Flex office in Austin next week someone will be able to show me the 6000

Regarding the question about language used to develop the win client, there is
a well supported .Net runtime for Linux (FreeBSD OSX too I think) called Mono
so some modules written in C# could run on multiple platforms. Although there

I am a Flex-5000 user, and am very interested in the 6000 series.
Unfortunately I will not have an opportunity to see one of the rigs until
the Huntsville hamfest in mid-August.
Will Flex-Radio still be offering the introductory pricing at that time?
Thank you and 73

We looked at Mono. They wanted an astronomical amount of money for it.
Now that the SmartSDR GUI clients are light weight, it probably makes
more sense to write them using an IDE native to the OS

Probably not. We had an idea of the number of units we wanted to
pre-sell for the limited time offer and the response at Dayton to the
FLEX-6000 line exceeded expectations.

From page 5 of the 6000 brochure: When the
GPSDO option is not installed, the FLEX-6700 and
FLEX- 6700R come standard with a ±0.02ppm Oven
Controlled Crystal Oscillator (OCXO) and the
FLEX-6500 comes with at ±0.5ppm Temperature
Controlled Crystal Oscillator (TCXO).
So if I buy the GPSDO
When PowerSDR 2.x came out there was a year delay with the comment it will be
ready when it's ready.
Will the 6700 series come out in 4q 2012 or is a delay up to a year possible?

on.

I trust that this post will not be in violation of user group protocols
Understanding that there are those of you who want to upgrade to the 6000
series, I seek to purchase a like new 5000, preferably with tuner and
second receiver. I am available at my personal email address:

The GPSDO is a TCXO that is disciplined by a GPS receiver. The radio
switches to the GPSDO when it is present. The GPSDO remains on in the
radio even when the main power is turned off to maintain the high stability
oscillator and the GPS lock (unless overridden by the user).

Indeed. I'm not at all convinced that doing the kind of screen-drawing you'd
want from the GUI console would be nicely done in Java.

Having the interfaces published would be most excellent, I agree.

Read your ad copy - it seems to say that the OXCO
is not included when one orders the GPSDO option.
Is the OXCO/TCXO included irregardless of the option order?

Published interfaces and protocols are the key.

1. The OCXO or TCXO (depending on your radio, FLEX-6700 or FLEX-6500,
respectively) are soldered to the board and do not go away with the GPSDO.
They are just not used.

Perhaps we are not asking about the same thing. I've not seen a GPSDO on a

I noticed in the specs it does not list DIGU or DIGL as used with the
other Flex rigs...but it lists RTTY. Looking on the back of the radio I
don't see an input for RTTY. Is it on the ACCY connector or is it going
to be done by a VSP?
What then is used for PSK, SSTV and other digital modes?
And they can be used in platform independent Python, which is no cost to all,
for all.
