Yesterday was a personally frustrating day in that three of my good students (all who have gotten their licenses, one who upgraded to general even) are moving and will not be returning to our school in the fall. That puts a dent in my science/robotics/ham-radio program at my school. Finding yet another roadblock in the day, i.e. not being able to use the shack computer for the Flex5000, was just over-the- top. So I seriously posted my question about getting things running on the Mac and humorously (well maybe not-so-humorously) commented about the Flex5000 being an inert lump. Sorry.
I made everything run last night. I took a server box that is slated to be a file server running Solaris and temporarily loaded Windows XP on it in order to get the Flex5000 running. I wanted to run it in plain-vanilla, out-of-the-box mode first before I start making changes to the software environment. Nothing is more annoying than to not know which of your changes caused the system to stop working. Oh man, the 5000 is a truly awe inspiring radio! And I still want to make it work natively with MacOS. - 73 de Brian, WB6RQN Brian Lloyd - brian HYPHEN wb6rqn AT lloyd DOT com _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kb.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/
