W9OY says: "Elecraft had their little answer to the pan adapter, what a joke. It was a little screen maybe 9" and made the radio look like a toy. The quality of the display was horrible" What can you expect from a Flex radio user,they all will attack our K3's,they all will critize our radios,they feel those Flex radios are the best in the world and nothing will be better for them,its a human nature to defend what we have but I would ask them, why Sherwood lab has the K3 on top of the list and then the "Flex 5000 takes second place? I will ask them to answer that simple question. AD4C

So many Flexradio users have PC problems and hangups. I would not go near this concept. At least if you plug the P3 in it wont hangup. You certainly wont have to spend months seeking out a good motherboard that wont cause hangups or stutter. I dont see Agilent bringing out test instruments with a PC for the main interface. They dont do this for for very good and valid reasons. Ham radios are exactly the same in nature, they need a front panel with knobs and buttons. I dont mind using my Perseus for casual monitoring and testing tasks, however when tuning the bands for a long period of time I just shut the thing off and use a real VFO knob. Its the most efficient device ever invented for tuning, its the equivalent of the wheel for ham radio! We all know there's little point in reinventing the wheel! Hail the VFO Knob!
