Re: [Flexradio] Heil Headset and FLEX-5000
Thanks to everyone who helped. I got time to go over to N3AO last night and we got his headset working. My Heil Proset set is Tango Uniform. I think there is a break in the cord as neither element works. This induced aggro which led to an improper setting in the aggro environment which prevented the perfectly good headset from showing it was working. The 5000 is working perfectly in all modes on my Intel ATOM computer. Since N3AO, N3KN, N1SMM, and I will be doing contesting and some serious algorithm testing, I am moving the new AMD II-X4 over there to use. When my refurbished AMD II-X4 arrived from Tigerdirect it was DOA. When I found out they had depleted their stock, I looked at Walmart and found this http://www.walmart.com/ip/Acer-1TB-PT.SGM02.002/16608489 It was the same price, brand new, with better graphics I will report after the contest this weekend.

Re: [Flexradio] Heil Headset and FLEX-5000
Hey Bob. I had an Acer Aspire One desktop, and had lots of problems with it. The DVD drive died within a few months, the LAN hardware went bad, and it finally completely gave up, shortly after the warranty expired. I liked the Acer laptops and notebooks, but don't trust the quality of their inexpensive desktops anymore. Keep an eye on it.

There is no jack of that size on the front of the '5000, and I need help knowing where and how to plug it into the back of the '5000, as there is no appropriately sized jack on the back (bumpy!) side. Also, I don't see where or how to plug in my 1/4 mono foot switch. Any help please for these two problems? 73, Carter N3AO ___ 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/ ___ 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/ ___ 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/ -- Flex Radio, Inc.

Re: [Flexradio] Heil Headset and FLEX-5000
Thanks, Bob. I am looking to see what parts I have here. I was trying to see if I could make these adapters without bothering you, but you are too smart/quick for me! Hi! Since I don't want to cut my present Heil headset wires/connectors, it looks like I need: One mono 1/8 socket for the mike, as I already have a mono RCA phono plug: Radio Shack 274-333. One mono 1/4 socket for the foot switch, and I can use the second mono RCA plug I already have: Radio Shack 274-340. I will try to pick these up today, and start doing the wiring together of all 4 parts. (I will plug the headphones plug right into the front jack, as you suggested. I already have the adapter I need for that!) Thanks for your help--AGAIN! 73, Carter -Original Message- From: Robert McGwier [mailto:rwmcgw...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, December 07, 2011 6:39 AM To: carter...@verizon.net Subject: Re: [Flexradio] Heil Headset and FLEX-5000 1/8 to RCA phono adapter applied to Line In. 1/4 to RCA phone adapter applied to PTT Both on the back.
