Geoff: If you are going to operate the Flex-1500 below 490 kHz, you must supply your own external receive bandpass filters. The internal filters stop at 490 kHz. You will also have to supply an external transmit power amplifier that will accept the 0 dBm onput from the transverter port. The 5 Watt internal RF power amplifier does not operate below 160 Meters.
