Hi all
My Flex-3000 has developed an RF output power problem.
After transmitting with full drive (Drive = 100) for a couple of minutes in
a CW QSO the RF output drops back from more than 100W to around 70W. This
occurs on all bands and whether transmitting into a dummy load or a matched
anten
I had some problems with overflow/underflow and audible glitches using VAC
4.13 with my Flex-3000 radio. The problems disappeared after I reverted to
VAC 4.11.

Hi Tim
Several models of HP notebook have ExpressCard ports. I'm using an HP
ProBook 6570b and a Firewire ExpressCard with my Flex-3000. The note book
also has on board FireWire port (JMicron controller) but unfortunately it is
not compatible with the radio.

Thanks for all the suggestions about portable switched mode power supplies.
I'll have a closer look at the Alinco DM-330MV, Powerwerx SPS-30DM and
Samlex SEC-1235 options.

Hi all
I'm looking for a small and lightweight AC power supply to power my
Flex-3000 radio when travelling.
I'm thinking of a small switch mode supply but it will need to be very quiet
from an RF noise perspective.
Any recommendations for a power supply in this category?
Thanks and 73

Hi All
WriteLog version 11.10 has just been released at
http://writelog.com/downloads/writelog-versions . This version includes a
modification to the K3 rig driver so that it can be used with the Flex-3000
radio for SO2V (single operator two VFO) operation. I expect the
modification will also
se rises with antenna connected.
Regards
Ray.

I'm running a Flex 3000 radio with PowerSDR 2.5.3.
When tuning across the 160M band (in any mode) the received noise floor
toggles between a normal (lower) level and an erroneous (higher) level.
Steps as small as 1 Hz can toggle the noise floor. The erroneous level is
approximately 6 dB higher
Hi Tim
Thanks for the hint - we look forward to seeing this feature in PowerSDR
v2.5.x :-)
It would also be helpful if this future version of PowerSDR could expand the
waterfall parameters to offer a faster refresh rate - ideally to something
like the rate used in CW skimmer. I find the addi
Hi Mike
I'm using an HP 6550B ProBook (i7 processor) which seems to work OK with my
Flex 3000 radio,
I note that the more recent 6560b ProBook also has a Firewire interface.

Sounds good Gerald - digital starting at the antenna connector is the way to
go! All the best for the 18 May event.

Hi Kermit
I have recently acquired a Flex 3000 and run it on an HP Probook 6550B
laptop using the built in firewire port and 8 GB RAM. So far it seems to be
working work fine.
The only difficulty I have encountered is when running CW skimmer and the
Flex 3000 on the same laptop. With this co
Thanks to everyone for the comments.
It does seem that the fluctuations in the output power meter readings are an
artefact of the sampling/averaging process that drives the meter display. I
will have a play with the multimeter options to see if there is a setting
which provides a more meaningf
I have recently acquired a new Flex-3000 radio (running SDR v2.2.3) and have
been giving it a test drive into a dummy load. All seems well except that
the output power reading on the TX meter fluctuates from about 70W to 105W
when transmitting CW dots or dashes at 30 wpm and 100% drive. Is this
