One nice thing about ham radio is the extensive variety of interests
available. For example, many like to use AM for not only its nostalgic
aspects but also the aspects of technical experimentation with home brew
rigs, Class E transmitters, SDR radios, audiophile chains, etc. Others

Last August I did an excellent interview with Greg Jurrens (he made it
excellent, I didn't) on the 6000 series. If you missed it here it is

He says it will be out 4th quarter 2012, is it out yet?
He is really good, I am surprised Flex does not use it
You might check with Grant, AA9LC, who made a presentation on building a SDR
transceiver (ARRL Challenge) at the Central Illinois Radio club. The
presentation included the how and why of mixing, modulation, and
demodulation in a SDR.

Did you attend? Can you give us a report?
Was a Flex- 6x00 working? Which of them?
Was it running a recording or real-time reception?
Were spectators allowed to tune/control it?
Limitations?
Other comments?

Hi All
I'm hoping someone can steer me in the right direction on my problem...I
have a Flex 1500, which runs great on my ASUS I5 CORE laptop. I have
bought a new to me desktop, which is a DELL T3400 PRECISION running a
CORE plus with 8M of ram at 64 bit.
Flex 2.5.3 software loaded ok, but
Thanks Burt, I had not seen that video before, except for the background
noise it was really great

Brian,
So what you just said, the introduction of a pre-selector to the Flex would
have negative effects? Not the 6000, but the non-stratosphere Flex radios.

Hi Lee
I am presently finishing off just such a presentation for a local club
here in Ontario. I will be giving the presentation tomorrow night. I
have done a variant of this presentation to three different clubs and
mostly well received.
I include a live demonstration of the Flex 1500 as

Thank you for the quick response. I have been researching the Heros SCR-cat,

of the ham bands. I just cannot get past the

I do not think that device will work on a Flex 1500. I checked it out
on the vendor's web site and that device is a one-speed device (USB 2.0
full speed {12MB} only), and the Flex 1500 is USB 1.1 device (data speed
equiv. to USB 2.0 low-speed device).
Les, check out L-COM and Black Box

I just did a quick google and that popped up, I am sure more investigation
would result in a proper device. I would never promise something works
unless I try it myself!

USB 2.0 Full Speed = USB1.1 Full Speed = 12 Mbps = what the Flex-1500 runs.
At least the USB committee has not called the same data rate two different
things in their standards. Even for USB three, Full Speed is still 12 Mbps.
Which bends the English language a little, since USB 2.0 also adds
Brian,
I am aware that there is a tuned front end for the Flex. As my interest in
radio communications extends past ham radio, my desire is for the Flex to be my
DC-light all in one box, therefore the need for a pre-selector for SWL and a
VLF/HF converter for VLF/LF monitoring and transverters
Check and make sure the cable is wired per Flex pin outs referenced at
