I'm having more fun on HF than I've ever had before since I bought the Flex-3000 radio. I don't think I can go back to a conventional HF rig. With this much control and display, it's like looking at the HF spectrum out a picture window instead of through a keyhole. http://www.flex-radio.com/Products.aspx?topic=F3k_features
I've done PSK, and DRM easily with the 3000. It's not as cheap as some of the other rigs, but LOTS of bang for the buck. You might even think to use the 3000 as your main rig and use the conventional rig for PSK. 73, N1FNE From: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com [mailto:digitalra...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of obrienaj Sent: Friday, December 25, 2009 1:04 PM To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Subject: [digitalradio] Re: Need your help picking HF radio. The TS2000 has lots of bang for the buck, HF, 2M, 6M, 70 cm, IF DSP. The TS480 has been labeled by some here as the "best" radio for digital modes. Icom746 Pro has good reviews. Icom 7000 also. Features, I am no expert in this area, but ability to control or at least turn off/on the AGC is important for digital modes. This helps reduce the problems associated with strong nearby signals using digital modes. Ability to easily dial in narrow filters while in USB (not just CW) also helps with digital mode QRM.
