Lloyd, Look at the specs.They are priced competitively. Where are you going to get a VHF/UHF receiver with the dynamic range of the FLEX-5000 with class A power amps in a single box solution? If you want a 30 watt version, then call the FlexRadio Sales team and buy one. As I have said

Hey, I’ve had a day to think about things… FLEX is making a giant mistake making the 60 watt the standard! Also it is way NOT competitively priced – not even close. I don’t know anybody that wants a 60 watt factory installed VHF-UHF version! Maybe that should be a "high poweroptional upgrade".

To get the same capability that the VLP V/U module provides using external transverters, you would need to spend $815 using Elecraft products if you are needing a max of 50 Mw. Since the VLP module costs $699, The VLP module is a very competitive product. If you need higher wattage, like 7 or

Tim and Lee, I also agree with this...I am going to stick with the XV144 transverter. I think the price is rather high for this...much higher than was originally estimated. I am sure it is well worth every penny...but just too much to spend for what it yields. So also take me off the list.

As I noted, there are other PA configurations available other than the *standard* offerings, so rather than canceling your order, of which I can not do, you must do that yourself (it is an internal FlexRadio policy), contact Greg directly and see what other PA options are available before makin

And another thing... The auto spell checker mangled the subject line and I missed it. It should have read, as it does now, "V/U module is *now* available for ordering from the OLS". But I assume most figured that it was a typo since I didn't get flamed too badly about it HI HI. Sorry for t
