Good grief.
Where is the list moderator? If you really want a VHF/UHF setup, just
buy or build one. If you want the FLEX solution - be patient. They
will get the news out when they are ready! I absolutely hate companies
that sell vaporware. The reluctance to give details and pricing so
far, tells me that FLEX is not a vapor sales company. Enough already!

No. It has to use the Firewire/ADC/DAC/TCXO interface on the
FLEX-5000 TRX board to operate.
Market research shows that V/U only, all mode radios are just too
small of a market share to justify the development expense.

So are there any future plans to make the V/U Upgrade "module"
into stand alone device then ??

Ray,
You are 100% correct. The upgrade that was initially slated as a
transverter was changed based on user input to a high power unit and
is no longer a transverter upgrade, but as you correctly stated, a
VHF/UHF expansion module.

And, while we are on the topic, people have been referring it as a
transverter. I believe I am correct in stating that it is not a
transverter, per se, but actually an expansion module to extend the
hardware to 144 MHz & 432 MHz. The difference being that a
transverter simply heterodynes (translates) the signals down to an RF
IF frequency, typically
28 MHz, where the normal radio hardware/software takes over. Whereas
with
an expansion module, the 144 MHz & 432 MHz signal processing will
use the same direct-conversion techniques like the radio does on HF/
6m.
