Re: [Flexradio] Expansion on previous question.

The 5000 and the 3000 are great sdr radios.. I have a 5000 and love it... You can get a used 5000 now for the price of a new 3000 and it has a slightly better receiver, quieter fan, more antenna ports, etc. But since the software for both is the same, the features in software are identical. J

The 5000 is a great radio and will continue to be for years in the future (I own one myself). PowerSDR will be maintained and upgraded as well, if nothing else because the 1500 and 3000 use it and they are extremely good sellers for Flex. I have ordered a 6700 but will continue to keep the 500

Thanks for the info Don. I didn’t realize they were discontinuing the 5000. I guess the fully loaded 5000 and the 6500 is not that much difference in price. The 5000 is a great radio and some very good buys on the used market. 73s Jim K4JAF -Original Message- From: Don Sent: Friday
