Tim,
That seems clear at this point.
A few related questions that were outstanding and answered vaguely at
Dayton 2012, but I'm checking to see if the answers have changed...
Where does the "ubiquitous client" stand? You'll recall discussion
about tablet, Mac and Linux support, but "not in the first release."
Are there resources working on this, given the .NET 4.0 decision? Has
the roadmap changed?
At this time, FlexRadio Systems is only working on the Windows client.
There have been no announcements regarding any different client software.
Since there will be an ongoing cost for SmartSDR support, and
apparently there is no open source client, has a decision been reached
to release specifications so that third part developers (that aren't
employed by FlexRadio Systems) can produce client software? Or not to
do so?
Yes. There is an evolving API available to developers to facilitate the
communication between a client and the radio.
Thanks and 73,

James T, SmartSDR is *not* a browser application, it is a Windows
WPF application that uses .NET 4.0.
All you have to do is connect the FLEX-6000 to your wired Ethernet
LAN, install SmartSDR on a Windows XP SP3 and above PC that is
also connected to the same LAN, start SmartSDR, choose your
FLEX-6000 from the radio discovery list and you are operational.
The other standard radio connections apply; 13.8 VDC power supply
connection, antenna, speakers or headphones, microphone or key.

Neal,
I don't think SmartSDR is a browser app. I believe it is a
Windows APP; otherwise, it would be MAC comparable.

Speaking of slathering, what type of “guaranteed setup” do
you need for your signature SDR other than an Ethernet
port and browser capability? It’s is one step up from
plugging in a monitor...not necessarily a bad thing. The
VT100 lives on.

Subject: Re: [FlexEdge] FLEX-5000A End of Manufacturing
Announcement
You are right because it really doesn't matter what the
"procurement difficulties" were.
One thing I could sense while working at the Flex booth
last weekend: These guys are all really excited about this
rig and the things they have dreamed up for it.
They have drunken their own koolaid.
Being in senior management for most of my career, I have
seen fake enthusiasm slathered on defective products that
would never provide 10% of promised functionality (sadly,
even had to do my share of the slathering). I personally
worked for a CIO who bragged about shipping blank CDs
instead of programs because he could blame shipping and it
gave him another 4-5 months of time to work on the slipped
schedule. That is not the state of affairs here. You could
hear, during down time, the guys exchanging ideas about
what this rig will do to change how we play radio.
I guess what I am saying is they really believe its a Game
Changer even though you can go get an Indian rig that
gives you a lot of the same stuff.
That makes me give them a fair look when the radio hits my
desk.
