Is there a version that has the CAT command fixed AND supports x64? It seems that the ones that I've tried don't like the x64. -Original Message- From: flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz [mailto:flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz] On Behalf Of Tim Ellison Sent: Thursday, June 04, 2009 7:19

Because if you turn it on, you get two receivers within the current segment being scanned. So you can listen on frequency as well as up 10 You can't listen on two bands without the second receiver, or 200 kHz apart, but you can when they are closer to each other. Ed WA4YIH -Original

I'll definitely agree that there has been a lot of hard work done. But there's some very basics to the equation. Parallel ports were pretty much out of use when the Flex 1000 was shipped. Apple, the prime pusher of the Firewire port has now started to drop support for Firewire just as the Flex

2009-05-18 Thread Woodrick, Ed
Brian, My guess is that there probably has been no significant testing of the voltage levels for the 3000. I suspect that the specified voltages come from the many parts that are used in the radio. As such, your mileage may vary on a per radio basis as to what the actual levels may be. I

If I'm not mistaken, that's a Hyperthreaded processor, not a dual-core. I'd probably recommend getting a new machine for anything else that you do and then wipe this one clean and reload it with a fresh OS for your Flex computer. I'd stay away from ANYTHING else on the machine such as

I wouldn't suggest even thinking about running PowerSDR in a virtualized server. Aside from the just getting the Firewire to work, virtualization and real-time operation do not fit in the same sentence. Ed WA4YIH -Original Message- From: flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz

Wow, check the forum today and there's been a lot of messages, many about the choice of computer. Now, I'm not a Flex expert, but I do know computers, and I feel that I can definitely stand behind the following statements. It will be next to impossible to guarantee that a computer is going to
