All, I have actually thought that I would like to either put together a training manual with screen shots or a flash-based step by step training using the product called Captivate that acts like a VCR/DVR and turns that capture into Flash. Once completed it could be uploaded to the FlexWiki or YouTube.
Now I just need the spare time to do such a ambitious project. 73, Robert KB6QXM "Ham Radio Open Conversation" Yahoo group owner/moderator ----- Reply message ----- From: "H.

I spent eight years in computer maintenance, did a little programming, but this new stuff has become very difficult to comprehend any more. Some of the users may be competent to handle this stuff, but not all ham's are as computer literate, or competent to handle this new SDR radio programming. I got the FLEX 5000A working when I first got it a few years ago. I loved the features that it provided and actually operating the radio was not too difficult. The problem comes when updating the operating system programs. There are many abbreviations being used that are simply Greek to me. Unless the manufacturer of these radios intend to limit their use to a restricted number of Ham's, there will have to be some way of automatically re-programming these radios. I have both the Flex 5000A and the Flex 1500 and they are both fine operating devices, but only if one can get them programmed without a degree in computer programming. Can you imagine how popular the cell phone would be if you had to do the same technical level of programming to make them first operate as a SDR radio now requires? I hope something can be done to make setting up a SDR a little easier than it presently is.
