The main reason that the recommended card list has US-centric products is not too surprising since thats where the people who are providing feedback live.

The trick to compatibility isn't a brand but a controller chip, especially since we are using (legacy) drivers in Win7. *Lets get some reports of non-US cards compatible with SDR-1000 and PowerSDR!!!* * * Neal On Thu, May 26, 2011 at 5:49 AM, Laurie <[email protected]> wrote: > I love my Flex 5000. > > But the day I sell it is getting closer by the minute. > > Why?
