This is great. Does anyone have a similar list for Vista?
Thanks

List for VISTA is simple ... turn the whole damn thing off, load XP, and use
the XP list.
Seriously ... it isn't worth the effort ... I tried for months and I
couldn't be happier back on XP.

Read the KC article on using the MacBook Pro. It tells
Looking to use the F3K for sattelite work (why did I not wait for the
upcoming /UHF VHFmodules and the F5K? Call it 'spreading out the cost of
station upgrade over a period of time, rather than all at once' Plus I
REALLY like the F3K for its size).
Any suggestions / recommendations welcome.
Folks,
As per the FlexRadio Users Reflector description
(http://www.flex-radio.com/Support.aspx?topic=Reflector_Description), any
discussion regarding the operation of FlexRadio's products on unsupported
hardware, such as the iMacs needs to be moved to the FlexEdge Reflector.
Thank You.
I was going to suggest exactly the same thing.
Turn off Vista, install XP.
Maybe in 2 or 3 years when the have W7 debugged, then W7?

For satellite work, it is highly recommended that you have a full duplex setup
so you can monitor the downlink when transmitting. Since the FLEX-3000 is a
half duplex radio, you will need another radio to enable full duplex
capabilities - or wait until the V/U module comes out for the

The program works great. Put PowerSDR/5000A into DRM mode and decodes much
better than SAM.

I don't use Vista but have followed some Flex threads about snipping

It might be a great utility buy make sure you are making the
decisions and not the tool. Its like guys running registry
cleanup/fixers. They find hundreds of issues and we blindly click
fix all then when we reboot the system doesn't work and we resort to

Go to www.tweakhound.com and look at his tweaking Vista pages. He has
2 pages on what services you can turn off. Just remember to not go
more aggressive than Level 2, it pays to take a system backup
beforehand and read the text about what each one does and see if you
know if you use it.

Dear Mr Systems Administrator List Manager,

bought at Walmart in June of 2008. I am running XP Home Edition. I am

This is what I did to make things run nicely.
1) Turned off TCP/IP for the firewire card.
2) Disabled windows search
Everett,
That is an issue with the current version that has been corrected in the
alpha or upcoming code.. It is really transmitting at the B vfo or
split, but indicating TX on VFO A .. Sorry for the confusion.

One night, I left my f3k on all night. I had turned the laptop off.
For the next 2 weeks I had major issues with PowerSDR either not

minutes until I did a Stop/Start.
Then it would work fine again for another few minutes.

I always run a fused 55 amp hour gel cell across my 13.8 volt supply. It's an

Jack,
The iMacs are not standard PCs due to the way that Apple forces the BIOS
to be set up to try to keep OS X from being run on industry standard
hardware. If only Steve Jobs years ago would have just let go of the
Apple proprietary firmware code, we would all be running MACs or at

Jim,
You are absolutely correct - it is not FLEX's fault. But, there is no
fault, per se. Sure, the bios and drivers may be proprietary to Apple,
just like any particular PC manufacturer's bios is considered to be
proprietary to that particular manufacturer. Apple has to provide

No argument on any point you made, Bob.
I can only say from experience that making multichannel, low-latency
streaming audio work on the machines while running Windows has been a
significant challenge; at least for me. I don't question that MatLab and
any number of heavy-hitter Windows apps
Try taking it off VAC and reconfigure to use your internal sound card.

Wow! I was having the SAME problem with my Samlex 1223 25A power supply,

SDR would freeze up overnight.
THEN the Samlex started making vibration noises on transmit. It finally

So I ALSO took out my Astron 35 A
