Now it does say on the Flex Web Site: Like all SDRs from FlexRadio Systems the FLEX-5000 is a fully software defined radio. The accepted definition of a real software defined radio is one "where components that have typically been implemented in hardware (e.g. mixers, filters, amplifiers, oscillators, modulators/demodulators, detectors. etc.) are instead implemented using software running on a personal computer or other embedded computing devices" . The advantages of a SDR over a traditional analog radio, a hybrid DSP/analog radio or "firmware defined radio" are many. Versatility, flexibility and immunity to obsolescence are just a few of the inherent characteristics of fully software defined radios. Don't be mislead by other manufacturer's claims that their radios or accessories are "software defined" when they are just really software controlled or have software defined "like" features. If you are looking for the real deal, a genuine software defined radio, then look no further than FlexRadio Systems and the FLEX-5000 .
" immunity to obsolescence" it says. So this new capability will be available in the Flex 5000... . . ... . humn _______________________________________________ Flexedge mailing list [email protected] http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexedge_flex-radio.biz This is the FlexRadio Systems e-mail Reflector called FlexEdge.
