Let me clarify a few things about the equalizer:

1) We will not abandon the equalizer.
2) As Bob, N4HY, posted earlier, the problems with the current EQ are
understood and acknowledged.
3) Bob and I agreed on an approach this morning that should give excellent
performance without encroaching on any patents.  He plans to do an equalizer
in the frequency domain (Fast Convolution Filtering) that works in a very
similar manner to the current RX/TX filter.  It will probably have 10 bands
+/- that cover from about 100 Hz or so to around 6KHz.  If you want more
than that you will need to use external EQ such as the W2IHY box or CuBase
that comes with the FireBox sound card.
4) The new EQ will be BEFORE the audio leveling, compression, and TX filter
so it should not have the problems associated with the original EQ of this
type a few months ago.
5) You probably won't get it as a Christmas present. ;>)  It may be a New
Year's resolution, right Bob. ;>)
6) Once again, since it is software, you can simply download the latest
version when it comes for free.

We at FlexRadio want to thank all of you for a great year and for the many
contributions you have made to our success.  We wish you a joyous Christmas
and a happy New Year.

73,
