A few things.  If the connector is loose, then take some time and open up
the case and have a look.  Don't worry, it won't bite you.  Look for a
broken lead to the board.  Lots of electronic problems like this are a
physical problem.

To see if there is a bad connection, connect your radio to your antenna and
listen to HF with the radio powered on and PowerSDR running.  Wiggle the
connector and if it is bad, you will certainly hear it on your speaker as
the background noise will change by the same amount as your wiggling the
bnc connector.

Also make sure you don't have a bad jumper cable or even a problem with
your antenna.  You may need some other radio or analyzer to test to check.

If it is broken, or doesn't look right, you can always call and talk to the
great guys at Flex.  I'm sure they will get you all fixed up.

If you chose to use a different tuner, like and SGC or LDG, you can always
do that.  You just have to make sure you leave your Flex tuner in bypass.
