The power-on lights are *all* red now? I had assumed that that was a
temporary measure to deal with a temporary part shortage.

Your FLEX-5000 is affectionately call the "Ruby Edition" since it has the red LED power
switch. Early models of the FLEX-5000 which had the blue LED are the "Sapphire Edition".
A while back, production of the FLEX-5000 ground to a halt because one
component was on extended backorder and if you are one part shy, you can build
or ship a radio. You guessed it, the blue LED power switch was the backordered
component. Since the red LED power switch was available and was not subject to
periodic long term backorders, FlexRadio did an ECO change and started
manufacturing the radio with red LED power switches. I suspect thy would tell
you where they sourced the blue LED and you could swap it out yourself if that
is something you really wanted to do.
