Well, I have put the 5000a through its paces, and have some questions.

The panadaptor and scope displays seem very poor, I am used to being able to see signals much more pronounced, I have adjusted the scale and other options with no improvement.

Its hard to see (on the panadaptor) how wide an AM signal is, the scope display does not show the carrier with modulation, and another odd thing, when an AM signal stops talking, the noise level goes up, unlike a normal AM receiver where the carrier quiets the receiver even with no speech. I can adjust the agc and improve things but it seems to need adjustment for various signal strengths, where a normal receiver handles weak and strong signals without any adjustemt needed.... I spent a lot of time compairing the homebrew receiver to the flex, and the homebrew seems much better in most respects.

I am a little disapointed in the displays on the flex, the resolution seems very poor, or is there something I am overlooking?

Also, there is no way I can monitor my outgoing audio, because its so delayed, even if I make the buffers as small as is allowed. That is partly a slow PC I guess...
