Hi John: I think there are 2 areas right now that would assist Flex Radio SDR1K users a great deal.
FRONT PANEL SETUPS: Have an ability to save a front panel setting and recall it by name. This would let any of us save various settings and recall them at will and exchange them with one another as "observed" best settings for various modes, conditions, etc. AUTO-TWEAK You set your SDR1K to a given band, given mode. Now shouldn't the radio be able to measure a signal and, "knowing" what all current settings are set to (front panel setup) and where previous best settings have been - automatically tweak, measure, tweak, measure to see if it can improve the signal to noise and if it can, record the front panel settings and let us compare the 2 settings of before auto-tweak and with auto-tweak? Is that the longest question in the world? I hope you get the idea. Software defined lets programmers pave the new frontier. Front panel setups make it democratic in that users can choose preferred settings. Auto-Tweak lets the intelligence of the radio that is in the box come out of the box. When implemented and evolved a bit, the old timers will comment on how "real operators" used to make these kinds of adjustments all the time based on what they heard and how well they knew their rigs. Now, the darn things figure it all out in real-time all by itself. Brave new world, brother hams. 73, John - WD1V Manchester, NH SDR1K (HF & 1296 EME) On 1/3/07, John Basilotto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > CQ Flexers. > > We need your input to help new Flexers reach optimum performance as soon > as > possible. > > As most Flexers know, the SDR-1000 is capable of being the best sounding > and > most powerful transmitter on the market today.
