I have put in a lot of mental hours and more than a few emails on this topic over the past 2 years, for 2 reasons. I think the Flex radios could be the premier contest radio on the market with just a bit of work and I also think our general ham community would benefit from the changes (plus it would increase sales which means Flex will remain healthy and produce that 128 module rig I have been hoping for!
In reality, I think 2x3000s are the premier config. We would need to fandangle PowerSDR, build on the 5000 implementation logic so it could run dual panadapters from two 3000s instead of 1 dual-rx 5000.
