Making decisions based on 3rd hand information might not be the best
thing to do...
I'm sure that Flex will comment on this as soon as they get back from
Dayton, if not sooner.

In my opinion this is a seriously bad move by Flex, if it is true. Not everyone
is interested in the 6000 series.
I love my Flex-5000, Flex-3000 and Flex-1500, but if they are going to receive
little or no support due to
the 6000 getting the limelight, then my next move will NOT be to the Flex-6000
but to a new Kenwood TS-990S

Discontinuing the 5000 makes a lot of sense. The 6500 has an ATU, Four slice
receivers, and the best available hardware and software for $4,300. The 5000
with an ATU and second RX was about $3,500, IIRC. With a price point that
close on two top-end radios, it's better to get the customer base and
(especially) support resources into the 6500 - 6700.
But that's a heck of a way to announce a change in plans for the 5000.

Don,
I have been with all the Flex people today for over an hour
at the Dayton Himation today.
I can assure you that there are no more 5000's. Not going to make
ANY more. They will be keeping the 1500 and 3000. That is factual
and you can take it to the bank.
Good success.
