Clyde, Each radio has settings that are radio-specific, & PowerSDR creates a separate database for each radio it sees. Therefore, the answer to your question is no, your FLEX-3000 settings will NOT be automatically transferred to your FLEX-5000. Your FLEX-5000 will start with the factory default settings. Also, you cannot use the database import/export facility in PowerSDR to transfer settings from one radio to another because of the different radio-specific settings.
I have written a free utility (free except for the rather blatant, on-time only plea for a donation) that will allow you to safely transfer all of your custom settings from one PowerSDR database to another. The utility is called SDRDataTransfer and is available from my website. Go to http://k9dur.info and click on "Downloads". Your procedure will be: 1. While your FLEX-3000 is still hooked up, start PowerSDR & open the Setup form. Click on "Export Database". This will place a copy of your FLEX-3000 database on your desktop. Save it to CD or flash drive for use at the summer home. 2. Hookup up your new FLEX-5000VU & start PowerSDR. This will create a new database with the default settings. 3. Use SDRDataTransfer to transfer all of your custom settings from your FLEX-3000 database to the new FLEX-5000 database. 4. At the summer home, install PowerSDR & hook up the FLEX-3000. When you start PowerSDR, it will create a new database. Then use SDRDataTransfer to transfer your settings from the old FLEX-3000 database you saved previously to the new one. Good luck. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask. 73, Ray, K9DUR http://k9dur.info _______________________________________________ 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://kc.flexradio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flexradio.com/
