Hey Bob.
I had an Acer Aspire One desktop, and had lots of problems with it. The DVD
drive died within a few months, the LAN hardware went bad, and it finally
completely gave up, shortly after the warranty expired. I liked the Acer
laptops and notebooks, but don't trust the quality of their inexpensive
desktops anymore. Keep an eye on it. YMMV

Subject: Re: [Flexradio] Heil Headset and FLEX-5000
Thanks to everyone who helped. I got time to go over to N3AO last night
and we got his headset working.
My Heil Proset set is Tango Uniform. I think there is a break in the cord
as neither element works. This induced aggro which led to an improper
setting in the aggro environment which prevented the perfectly good headset
from showing it was working.
The 5000 is working perfectly in all modes on my Intel ATOM computer.
Since N3AO, N3KN, N1SMM, and I will be doing contesting and some serious
algorithm testing, I am moving the new AMD II-X4 over there to use.
When my refurbished AMD II-X4 arrived from Tigerdirect it was DOA.
When I found out they had depleted their stock, I looked at Walmart and
found this
http://www.walmart.com/ip/Acer-1TB-PT.SGM02.002/16608489
It was the same price, brand new, with better graphics ........
I will report after the contest this weekend.

My Heil headset has two plugs on the end of its cable:
One is a black 1/4" stereo phono plug for the headphones, and I see where
to
plug that into the PHONES jack on the front of the radio, so no problem
there.
The second is a gray 1/8" mono plug for the mike, and I DON'T see where to
plug that in.
There is no jack of that size on the front of the '5000, and I need help
knowing where and how to plug it into the back of the '5000, as there is
no
appropriately sized jack on the back (bumpy!) side.
Also, I don't see where or how to plug in my 1/4" mono foot switch.
Any help please for these two problems?
