[Flexradio] Ant tuning anomaly
When tuning (using an external Palstar Auto Tuner) my Flex 5000A has recently begun to take three or four seconds to confirm a correct setting, that is one with an SWR of 1.12 or below. If I am running barefoot this isn't a problem. However, when using an amplifier, it causes a serious problem in that a high SWR with the attendant high reflected power is erroneously signaled thereby causing the amp to shut down and the 5000A to freeze. I have checked the tuner with another setup and it is working as it should. I have confirmed the cables and connectors are functioning correctly. Any ideas?

[Flexradio] Major dropouts on 5000A
I was having major dropouts on my 5000A after having a 100% problem free experience with it since setting it up several weeks ago. The difficulty began last Saturday when I started the software. The panadapter would show a normal pattern, then within 2 to 3 seconds show either a flat line slowly rising or a very slow and expanded pattern of the band noise level. After trying different bands, different antenna cables and connections, different antennas, older software releases, rebooting everything, etc etc I called Flex this AM. I spoke with both Gerald and Eric. It was determined within a very few minutes that my problem was software related - not hardware. Following Eric's instructions, I installed, then ran, the DPC Latency Checker which showed an extreme problem with max latency over 13,000 us. After disabling individual drivers (using the Device Manager) I discovered that my recently installed Linksys Wireless-N Notebook Adapter WPC300N was causing the problem. After enabling the other network adapters and disabling the Linksys the max latency dropped to between 8 and 12 us. For those of you considering upgrading your wireless capability to 802.11N using Linksys you may either disable your wireless device when operating the radio or change your operation mode (mine is Safe Mode 1) to Safe Mode 3. Either action will give you dropout free receive. Thanks to Flex for another example of GREAT service. George Bennett, K1GMB -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

[Flexradio] USB Device Not Found. (-4)
I receive the above message when I attempt to fire up my SDR 1000. I am using Beta v1.9.1 SVN: 1320 Does anyone else have this problem? After experiencing this problem I updated my TortoiseSVN, checked and reseated connections, unplugged and replugged both the Edirol and SDR-1000 and restarted my computer.

[Flexradio] SVN 652
I too am unable to change tune steps. I have tried clicking with left and right mouse buttons, scrolling, control press and shift press. Anyone have a suggestion?

Re: [Flexradio] SVN 652
Thanks for the quick response; however, that doesn't work either - for me at least.

[Flexradio] Connection to Alpha 87A
I want to connect my SDR-1000 to an Alpha 87A amplifier. Page 15 of the ma= nual states The Common Protection Diode (pin-8) should be connected to the= positive lead of the relay power supply. This will shunt the reverse volta= ge from the relay coil as it is turned off, thereby protecting the control = transistors from transient voltages. I'm afraid I don't know what that me= ans. Can someone help me with this? Thanks, George Bennett -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

[Flexradio] ShuttlePro
I have just received my new SDR-1000 with the PreSonus Firebox and ShuttlePro 2. Has anyone suggested a setup for the ShuttlePro? I haven't found anything concerning the use of this with the SDR-1000 other than the manufacturer's recommendation. I hate to reinvent the wheel if a set of instructions already exists. Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

I tried checking the delta 44 in3 and in4 boxes for phase reversal but it made no difference. The difference in modulation positive versus negative going audio is dramatic when using a good mike and audio chain, especially with the excellent low end available with the sdr1000.
