Re: [Flexradio] Configuring PSDR with a RX only loop so that Ican't TX into it with my 5000A?
Lee, You could suggest that, but then again, you could probably take less abuse from a wood chipper! :-) In all honesty, I think this is a simple matter of perspective based on model (1500/3000/5000) and point of view. I wouldn't worry about it as it really doesn't matter. Call it what you will. I particularly like your reference to the bumpy stuff and don't really mind what anyone calls it, as your characterization is clear and colorfull! :-) Enjoy the radio and the hobby and above all, don't sweat the small stuff. The Flex and other SDR-based radios, even the ones with knobs and other bumpy stuff are all really cool when compared to some of the vintage stuff that we may have used previously.

Normally I can sort of follow what people are saying even with my reduced capacity to understand meaning given my age but this time you've got me. What on earth are you talking about when you say the power switch (button with blue lamp) mike jack and headphone jack are on the back of the 5000? Of course functions can be accessed from the back but can I suggest that the side of the radio with all the bumpy stuff is the back? 73 Lee K9WRU ___ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flexradio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flexradio.com/

If anyone questions the fact that Flex Radio reflectors promote the best aspects of the ham radio hobby this thread should put that to rest. I dare anyone to find evidence that a good chuckle before bed is bad. Tomorrow I will have one of the local EC's visiting the shack and I don't think he has ever seen an SDR radio and certainly has no idea of what he is missing! But I will start out slowly and first have him sit down at a Model 28 KSR Teletype machine for a whiff of oil and grease. I do realize that the greatest danger is attempting to cover too much material! But I do promise to leave the panafall on! 73 Lee K9WRU - Original Message - From: J.Gordon Beattie, Jr., W2TTT w2...@att.net To: 'Lee Mushel' herbe...@centurytel.net; FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz Sent: Sunday, December 04, 2011 9:19 PM Subject: RE: [Flexradio] Configuring PSDR with a RX only loop so that Ican't TX into it with my 5000A?
