I like my Flex500A but this is one of the areas that is especially
disappointing. There are no real benefits when using the transverter.
You cannot even tune NOAA weather. Bandwidth controls are ineffective.
If you are happy just being a a user all is well. If you are an
experimenter hoping for a tunable IF as you work your way up, it is not
in this box. Drop back to SoftRock and restart.
If you are a contester the tools provided in the Flex still look great
to me.

I just got suckered into irresistible click bait. I saw an ad for something
called transverter store. Their prices for 144 and 430 MHz transverters seem
almost irresistible. Wondering if these are any good. Always looking for a new
way to use my flex-5000. Says it will cover the whole 2m band if your radio
will do 28-32 MHz. Not sure what it takes to get my flex outside standard 10m
band limits. Wondering what those weak signal types think.
