Re: [Flexradio] What is the input impedance for RX1 and RX2?

[Graham Haddock]

50 Ohms, nominal, at the frequency band(s) being received at that point in
time.
You didn't say which FlexRadio you were talking about, so the out of band
story can be quite different, depending on the presence and tuning of
bandpass filters.

[Graham Haddock]

Dale:

That is for control of a HEROS brand preselector.

http://herostechnology.co.uk/pages/products.html

Some of our European customers wanted to have additional front end
selectivity,
probably because of nearby shortwave broadcast stations.

Not commonly seen in the U.S.

Re: [Flexradio] What

[Lee Mushel]

Jay,

Your analysis is probably correct but if it will make you feel any better I 
once commented on 40 meters that I used my V/U  upgrade along with an 
Elecraft XV144 to watch both the input and output of repeaters.   I thought 
that was a perfectly normal thing to do but you have no idea how much abuse 
came down on my head because I actually used equipment like that to listen 
to a repeater!   The only time things were worse was when I had admitted, 
one day, that I had owned my flex radio for some time but didn't feel I had 
come anywhere near to mastering it!   Wow!   Those fellows even included 
my mother in what was then dumped on me!

[Flexradio] What finally happened with failure to connect problem

[George Works]

Dudley,
Thanks for all your help with my failure to connect problem with a Flex 
3000 and PSDR 2.6.4. As we could not resolve this by email, I sent the 
radio in for repair. Although Flex replaced two ICs I don't think this 
was actually the problem, because when I received the radio back it had 
exactly the same symptoms: the PC reported the Firewire working, but the 
radio couldn't be found. Re-installing, changing drivers, changing 
cables, etc. had no effect.


I finally disabled the motherboard Firewire port (with VIA chips) in the 
BIOS. Then I installed a Firewire card (with TI chips). The problem 
disappeared instantly and the radio now works fine.

George, PJ5/KJ6VW

[Flexradio] What has happen to tech support

[Darryl Wagoner]

I submitted a support request on the 14th and I have gotten only one
response from Flexradio shortly after I submitted it.

I am 99% sure it is a hardware problem, because my external mic plugged
into the Flex3000 just stop working and hasn't worked since.

Is the people at Flex OK?  I hope Dudley isn't ill or had other emergency.

[Flexradio] What settings for RTTY/Fldigi?

[vtnn43e]

If I am using RTTY and Fldigi what should the Clicktune offsets and RTTY offset 
be in PSDR? And what should the Sweetspot be in Fldigi? 


PSDR is at 1500 in DIGU and 2210 in DIGl in the click tune offset. The RTTY is 
set for 2125 under Catcontrol for DIGL and DIGU. Only Enable Offset VFO A is 
enabled. Should both be enabled? 


The Sweetspot in Flidig is set at 1500 for all modes in the Misc setting.

[Flexradio] What are other folks using for performance microphones?

[Mark Lunday]

The Pro Headset with the HC-6 element from Heil, while a beautiful piece of
gear, is not going to work, the on-ear headphones are uncomfortable..I will
stay with my Extreme Isolation EX-29 headphones.  But I am wondering if
there is a better pileup buster microphone out there.  I am currently using
the FT817 stock mike.

Obviously the Heil gold-line is a popular choice.  Gold Elite is $160, but
there is also HM-12 for $70.  Given that we can tailor our audio output, is
there a preferred choice that folks have?  Or should I stay with the FT817
stock microphone (sometimes it feels like I have to yell to break the
pileup..at least my wife says I am yelling.but maybe that's just me getting
old).

Re: [Flexradio] What are other folks using for performance microphones?

[k4elo]

I'm using a Heil BM-10 lightweight headset with the HC-5 element and
very frequently I get unsolicited reports of great audio, no matter
whether I am running the F5K, 3K, or one of my boat anchor rigs.  Tx
equalizer is set to flat response.
Thanks Bob Heil.

Re: [Flexradio] What are other folks using for performance microphones?

[Jim Jannuzzo]

I mounted a Heil MB1 (also with an HC 6 element) on to s pair of Bose Quiet 
phones with a home made mount. Very comfortable for long sessions.  Isolates me 
from distrations, too.  These are plugged into the front of the F5K.  I have a 
pretty sharp (4 DX compansion, boosted treble, etc.) mic profile for this one. 
Then, I have a Heil PR781 on a Luxo extending desk boom with a generic shock 
mount and a Heil foam pop cover. I pull this one over when not using the 
headphones, and when I want to sound like a broadcaster.  This one's plugged 
into the balanced mic input in the back.   
The $15 foam pop filter was probably the best addition to any of this setup.

Re: [Flexradio] What are other folks using for performance microphones?

[Jim Jerzycke]

I'm using an HM-10 dual element with a pair of Radio Shack over-the-ear 
headphones. The phones were pretty inexpensive, but got great reviews on 
eHam, and I agree.


When the going gets really tough, I use a Radio Sport headset with boom 
mic. These are kind of expen$ive (~$400), but are the best headset I've 
ever used.


For both setups I use a Linemaster Hercules foot switch. It's big, 
HEAVY, and indestructible.

[Flexradio] What did I do to mess up PSK xmit?

[William Speedie]

Hi,

Two days ago, my Flex 5000A and the software were working fine on PSK.  But, 
yesterday, when tried to call a station, my gear refused to transmit.  It 
receives just fine and I can hear the Flex switch from receive to transmit but 
DigiPan locks up and the PSDR screen shows 0 watts output.  Something must have 
happened to change a software setting but I can't find anything to be different.

I can send CW and SSB so the radio itself is OK, and it also shows power output 
when I click on ATU.  Here's my setup:  Flex 5000A, Win 7, PSDR 2.0.22, VAC 
4.09, Com0Com and DigiPan 2.0.

Any hints would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Bill   --  KA6T

[Flexradio] what computer power best for FLEX1500 and future?

[Rick R]

Now that I have realized I need more computing power, I am going to buy a new 
lap top. 
What processor and RAM combo are best for the FLEX1500 and future applications? 
Minimum requirements and realistic upgrade? Is it worth it to get a quad core? 
higher speeds?  
I asked at the EME conference and was told that my current Pentium 1.6G 2G RAM 
computer would probably do the job, and it does, except on CW transmit, my 
main microwave operating mode (with transverters). I know an Intel dualcore 
2.2G and 3G RAM 64bit  runs my FLEX1500 and PowerSDR v2.0.16 fine as I tested 
it with a friend's newer laptop. Thanks in advance for consideration. Happy New 
Year. Rick, K1DS

Re: [Flexradio] What is the recommended ieee driver

[Erik Jakobsen]

Can anyone give the link for the recent 1394 hotfixes ?

73s - Erik - OZ4KK


 Could you give the link for the hofixes here ?.
 
 /Erik OZ4KK
 
 
 If you are not experiencing any issues, then use the LSI driver.  If you 
 have distorted audio or drop outs, use the legacy driver.

 Then again, if you are bold and installed the two recent 1394 hotfixes, then 
 you need to use the standard driver as I do not believe that the vendor 
 specific drivers were updated in the hotfixes.

[Flexradio] What is the recommended ieee driver

[David Walker]

 Hi folks,  I am using Windows 7 and was wondering IEEE driver in Win7 
flex recommend we use.  There are 3 drivers - LSI, Legacy, and Standard 
IEEE. I was using the LSI and changed to the standard driver this 
evening.  I can't say I notice much difference.


Cheers

Dave

Re: [Flexradio] What is the recommended ieee driver

[Tim Ellison]

If you are not experiencing any issues, then use the LSI driver.  If you have 
distorted audio or drop outs, use the legacy driver.

Then again, if you are bold and installed the two recent 1394 hotfixes, then 
you need to use the standard driver as I do not believe that the vendor 
specific drivers were updated in the hotfixes.

Re: [Flexradio] what version of power sdr to setup.

[Graham Haddock]

Tim is correct.

You can set it up and get running under 2.0.7 with the factory
installed driver 0.4.1.2.  When you are comfortable, you can upgrade
to 0.4.1.4 to get the sidetone volume control running. No other
impact or need for firmware upgrade at this time.

[Flexradio] what a team...

[Steve Potter]

Hi all,
 
Just to express my thanks to Klaus (DK7XL) in Germany, I sent my Flex-3000 to 
him on Monday for the pre-amp mod, and it's on its way back already...
 
I must admit I have been having withdrawal sysmptoms, so much so I have been 
phoning round the UK distributors for a 1500 no such luck.
 
Thanks Flex and all your teams around the world, seems they all have one thing 
in common... Tune in Speed!

Re: [Flexradio] what if i have two flex how this will work v2.0

[Ray - K9DUR]

Richard,

Yes, I was mistaken.  PowerSDR will notice that the serial number is
different and will force a download of the EEPROM data when you switch
radios.

I was under the impression, from looking at the database.xml that
information was stored based on serial number.

I recall reading this somewhere previously - a couple of weeks ago in fact.

Re: [Flexradio] what if i have two flex how this will work v2.0

[Tim Ellison]

I shall assume you can have both radio's plugged in (with 2 fire wire ports 
available) and powered up - but you have to select the Master in the flex 
driver to determine which one you will be taking control of?

That does not work so well (tried it yesterday with a FLEX-5000 and Flex-3000). 
 Only power up or physically connect one radio at a time and everything works 
fine.

Running multiple radios from a single PC is a one of the primary design goals 
of the Deep Impact software.

I suppose another way you could run multiple radios is to have multiple users:

As it stores the pertinent information within your profile in the following 
folder - for example mine:

C:\Users\rclafton\AppData\Roaming\FlexRadio Systems\PowerSDR v1.19.3

You could have radio1 and radio2 users

Which would store the database.xml and other relevant files in their own 
appdata folders like so.

C:\Users\radio1\AppData\Roaming\FlexRadio Systems\PowerSDR v1.19.3
C:\Users\radio2\AppData\Roaming\FlexRadio Systems\PowerSDR v1.19.3

That way you can maintain unique information such as TX Profiles per radio.

Or the easy way (having just found the article I saw a few days ago!)

http://kc.flex-radio.com/KnowledgebaseArticle50469.aspx

I shall assume you can have both radio's plugged in (with 2 fire wire ports 
available) and powered up - but you have to select the
Master in the flex driver to determine which one you will be taking control of?

That's a step I cannot confirm as I don't have two flexes (yet!).

Actually he can run multiple radios from one database.  When PowerSDR 
inits, it looks at the S/N of the radio and compares it to what is in 
the database, if they do not match, then it will populate the DB with 
the EEPROM data from the attached radio.  You can do this with multiple 
FLEX-5000s or FLEX-5000 and a FLEX-3000.  Eric was really crafty when he 
coded in this fail-safe feature

Although if you want speedier loading, you can use the runtime option to 
tell PowerSDR what base folder to use for storing the variable user data.
http://kc.flex-radio.com/KnowledgebaseArticle50469.aspx

And would probably be the preferred method of running multiple radios on 
one computer.  This is how I run a FLEX-1500 and a FLEX-5000/3000 on the 
same computer *at the same time*.

 Richard,

 No, he needs separate database files for each radio since the calibration
 for each specific radio is stored in the database file.  If he were to
 follow the procedure you suggest, the file would only have the calibration
 data for radio #2,  radio #1 may not work properly.  Unless, of course, you
 were suggesting that he repeat that procedure every time he switched radios.

 The driver will only allow one radio to be on at a time, but he can set
 things up to use different databases for each radio.  This can only be
 accomplished by a new feature in v2.0 Beta that may not be documented yet.
 Basically, it involves specifying a command-line parameter in the shortcut

Re: [Flexradio] what if i have two flex how this will work v2.0

[David McKenzie]

This is how I imagine it would work:
1. Load the driver on the computer with no Flex-5000 attached, then reboot
and connect one of the 5000s and upgrade the firmware on it.
2. Check that it works with 2.0 beta.
3. Close PowerSDR, unplug the 5000 and plug in the other one.
4. Upgrade the firmware on it like before
5. Run PowerSDR 2.0 again

or, don't upgrade the second one and it should work with the old version.

Re: [Flexradio] what if i have two flex how this will work v2.0

[rfnoise]

This brings up the same question about Flex-1500. My use of 1500's IF radio for 
microwave transverters, so ideally I would like to connect and use more then 
one simultaneously. 

Can i connect and use more then one 1500 at a time? (desire is to receive and 
visualize bands simultaneously)

I realize that ultimately from a USB bandwidth perspective i will need to have 
enough capability to support more than one at a time, so this question is more 
about software I suppose.

thanks!

Re: [Flexradio] what if i have two flex how this will work v2.0

[Richard Clafton]

I think I know what you are asking.

You only need to upgrade the PowerSDR software once - as that is the front end. 
  It does not affect your Flex hardware.   Now to
upgrade firmware you will connect one Flex at a time and perform the upgrade.  
Once you have done one, disconnect, plug in the other
and upgrade firmware.

Or have I got it wrong too? ;-)

hi 
since i have two flex 5000 one have all install atu + 2nd rx  the other have 
only atu . 
how this will work if i load the v2.0 can i load it on one of the flex then it 
will load all the 
new into the 2ND flex 5000 by itself ?one computer only this time .
or i need 2 computer for each 5000 to load the v2.0 ?

well do i need to load the v2.0 on 1 computer ?when i do update 
it will do it to each of the 5000 .so if i connect 1 5000 to my computer it 
will load 
the new version 2.0 .
then when i connect the 2ND one [i know one at the time not two at the same 
time we all know this ] it will load the 2ND 5000 auto-the new version in to

Thanks for the update. Excellent news and I appreciate the details you have

No, he cannot.  However, if he wishes to use them one at a time on the same

Re: [Flexradio] what if i have two flex how this will work v2.0

[Ray - K9DUR]

Richard,

No, he needs separate database files for each radio since the calibration
for each specific radio is stored in the database file.  If he were to
follow the procedure you suggest, the file would only have the calibration
data for radio #2,  radio #1 may not work properly.  Unless, of course, you
were suggesting that he repeat that procedure every time he switched radios.

The driver will only allow one radio to be on at a time, but he can set
things up to use different databases for each radio.  This can only be
accomplished by a new feature in v2.0 Beta that may not be documented yet.
Basically, it involves specifying a command-line parameter in the shortcut
used to start PowerSDR to tell PowerSDR what database file to use.  I know
the feature exists (at least it did in the SVN revisions), but I do not know
the correct syntax of the command-line parameter to be used.

I think I know what you are asking.

You only need to upgrade the PowerSDR software once - as that is the front
end.   It does not affect your Flex hardware.   Now to
upgrade firmware you will connect one Flex at a time and perform the
upgrade.  Once you have done one, disconnect, plug in the other
and upgrade firmware.

Or have I got it wrong too? ;-)

Re: [Flexradio] what if i have two flex how this will work v2.0

[Ray - K9DUR]

Steve,

WARNING! What you recommend is NOT recommended.  The calibration data for
the radio is stored in the database.  If you do as you suggest, the
calibration would be correct for one radio but not the other.  You need 2
separate databases, one for each radio.  You will be able to specify the
database to be used in PowerSDR v2.0.  See the FlexEdge reflector for
further information.

In PowerSDR v1.18.6, this can be accomplished by creating a new database.xml
file with radio #1  renaming it to database1.xml (or something like that).
Then restarting PowerSDR with radio #2 turned on  create another new
database.xml file.  Rename this file to database2.xml (or something).  Then
copy the correct version of the file to database.xml before starting
PowerSDR.

OK several questions in this thread.  First of all the 2-radio question:
 PowerSDR is loaded on the computer, not the radio.  The only software that
is loaded into the radio, itself, is the firmware.  As Tim said, you cannot
run two 5000s on a single computer at the same time, but you can connect
one, load PowerSDR and then load the updated firmware in the radio.  The you
can disconnect that radio, plug in the second and only load the firmware
into the second radio.  At this point you could run either radio on that
computer.  You may, of course, load PowerSDR on another computer if you want
to run the radios at the same time.

[Tim (W4TME)]

Actually he can run multiple radios from one database.  When PowerSDR 
inits, it looks at the S/N of the radio and compares it to what is in 
the database, if they do not match, then it will populate the DB with 
the EEPROM data from the attached radio.  You can do this with multiple 
FLEX-5000s or FLEX-5000 and a FLEX-3000.  Eric was really crafty when he 
coded in this fail-safe feature


Although if you want speedier loading, you can use the runtime option to 
tell PowerSDR what base folder to use for storing the variable user data.

http://kc.flex-radio.com/KnowledgebaseArticle50469.aspx

And would probably be the preferred method of running multiple radios on 
one computer.  This is how I run a FLEX-1500 and a FLEX-5000/3000 on the 
same computer *at the same time*.

new into the 2ND flex 5000 by itself ?one computer only this time .
or i need 2 computer for each 5000 to load the v2.0 ?
many thanks

Re: [Flexradio] what if i have two flex how this will work v2.0

[Richard Clafton]

I was under the impression, from looking at the database.xml that information 
was stored based on serial number.

I recall reading this somewhere previously - a couple of weeks ago in fact.

Richard,

No, he needs separate database files for each radio since the calibration
for each specific radio is stored in the database file.  If he were to
follow the procedure you suggest, the file would only have the calibration
data for radio #2,  radio #1 may not work properly.  Unless, of course, you
were suggesting that he repeat that procedure every time he switched radios.

The driver will only allow one radio to be on at a time, but he can set
things up to use different databases for each radio.  This can only be
accomplished by a new feature in v2.0 Beta that may not be documented yet.
Basically, it involves specifying a command-line parameter in the shortcut
used to start PowerSDR to tell PowerSDR what database file to use.  I know
the feature exists (at least it did in the SVN revisions), but I do not know
the correct syntax of the command-line parameter to be used.

I think I know what you are asking.

You only need to upgrade the PowerSDR software once - as that is the front
end.   It does not affect your Flex hardware.   Now to
upgrade firmware you will connect one Flex at a time and perform the
upgrade.  Once you have done one, disconnect, plug in the other
and upgrade firmware.

Or have I got it wrong too? ;-)

Actually he can run multiple radios from one database.  When PowerSDR 
inits, it looks at the S/N of the radio and compares it to what is in 
the database, if they do not match, then it will populate the DB with 
the EEPROM data from the attached radio.  You can do this with multiple 
FLEX-5000s or FLEX-5000 and a FLEX-3000.  Eric was really crafty when he 
coded in this fail-safe feature

Although if you want speedier loading, you can use the runtime option to 
tell PowerSDR what base folder to use for storing the variable user data.
http://kc.flex-radio.com/KnowledgebaseArticle50469.aspx

And would probably be the preferred method of running multiple radios on 
one computer.  This is how I run a FLEX-1500 and a FLEX-5000/3000 on the 
same computer *at the same time*.

Re: [Flexradio] what if i have two flex how this will work v2.0

[Richard Clafton]

I suppose another way you could run multiple radios is to have multiple users:

As it stores the pertinent information within your profile in the following 
folder - for example mine:

C:\Users\rclafton\AppData\Roaming\FlexRadio Systems\PowerSDR v1.19.3

You could have radio1 and radio2 users

Which would store the database.xml and other relevant files in their own 
appdata folders like so.

C:\Users\radio1\AppData\Roaming\FlexRadio Systems\PowerSDR v1.19.3
C:\Users\radio2\AppData\Roaming\FlexRadio Systems\PowerSDR v1.19.3

That way you can maintain unique information such as TX Profiles per radio.

Or the easy way (having just found the article I saw a few days ago!)

http://kc.flex-radio.com/KnowledgebaseArticle50469.aspx

I shall assume you can have both radio's plugged in (with 2 fire wire ports 
available) and powered up - but you have to select the
Master in the flex driver to determine which one you will be taking control of?

That's a step I cannot confirm as I don't have two flexes (yet!).

Is there a new switching power supply in the area?

are they there with a 50 ohm load right at the radio?

Looking at the spurs, they are up to -125 dBm.  The noise floor is -140 dBm

Disconnecting the new Sw PS jad no impact.

Look for common mode stuff propagated in on the interconnecting cables then.
Disconnect everything except the firewire cable and the dummy load. Look for
the noise. Then add in your cable one-at-a-time to see which one is the
culprit.

If you don't see any reduction with everything else disconnected, it is
probably coming in on the power cable or on the Firewire cable. Read the
article on common-mode chokes. Remember, that applies to the firewire and
power cables as well.

[Bill Bordy, NJ1H]

Did you turn it off by the AC switch on the power supply. If not, the 
supply is still active if it is a computer supply. The standby power is 
always available if the AC switch is on. I had a computer switcher that 
went bad and started generating noise even when the computer was off. I 
finally located the problem by disconnecting the AC power cable which 
was easier then reaching around the back of the computer to turn the AC 
switch off.

I know my 1000 has always had lots of spurs on the high bands.

Was your noise floor higher before and now lower? they might have been

Is there a new switching power supply in the area?

are they there with a 50 ohm load right at the radio?

[Flexradio] What changed?

[Mark Lunday]

F3K
1.18.5
Win7
Latest driver

Turned off radio for 48 hours, back on and I have spurs on 17 meters and up
through 6 meters.

Tried resetting database, no difference.

Seems to happen regardless of any of the wire or yagi antennas which I
connect to.

I have had the spurs on 6 meters for about 2 months now, and I figured it
was just local interference.

All gear is turned off except the rig and the computer (normal ops)

SR has no effect.

Re: [Flexradio] What changed?

[Dudley Hurry]

Mark,

If the SR doesn't move them, I would be willing to bet that it's coming 
from a source other than the radio.  Follow what Tim says,  try it into 
a dummy to see if it changes value.It could be coming from the 
computer powersupply (not all supplies are created equal, look for a 
class B certification)  ,  maybe the video monitor or some other device 
connected to the computer,  might even be another computer (I have one 
that has a noisy ATA disk controller)  lots of places to look.

Re: [Flexradio] What amplified speakers are good?

[TOM BLACKWELL (nt)]

Creative speakers use a 28 VDC switching power supply.  When I transmit
on certain frequencies, it fails.  The audio dies and the power
indicator on the speaker and the power supply flashes on and off.  There
is a popping sound.  When I go back to receive - everything's OK.

I am considering going to a linear power supply for 28 VDC.  I have
tried to contact Creative, following instructions on their web page, but
they have not responded.

I have a compander on my McInosh.  (Where I live, a McIntosh is a

It's a little different animal than the CMPR on a Flex.

I don't notice it in stereo mode (BIN or RX1 + RX2)

I believe it is more of a mode of adding more spatial dimension to the audio.

Re: [Flexradio] what is cpdr do ?

[Ray - K9DUR]

Larry,

The compander in PowerSDR COMPRESSES signal peaks and EXPANDS signal
minimums.  The compander in PowerSDR is applied only to the transmit audio
signal.  It does not affect the receive signal.  The compander in your
MacIntosh amp is the same animal except that they provide separate control
for the compression  expansion levels while PowerSDR has only one control
which adjusts both.

The article you referenced is a little confusing.  When it was talking about
compressing audio before the A-D converter (transmit) and expanding it after
the D-A converter (receive), it was referring to a specific application in
the recording industry where you have a closed system.  That is, you have
control over both the recording (transmit) process and the playback
(receive) process, such as in a digital audio recorder used in a sound
recording studio.  Using this technique, you can achieve a nearly
distortion-free method of increasing the signal-to-noise ratio.  

Obviously, in radio communications, we only have control of one end of the
process, either the transmit signal processing or the receive signal
processing, but not both (unless you only work stations using Flex radios,
too).

By-the-way, I used to be the studio facilities engineering manager for RCA
Records way back in the analog recording days.  We had compressors back
then, but expander circuits were a little more tricky.  They relied on
positive feedback  were prone to oscillation.  What you can do with DSP
these days is nothing short of amazing.

Re: [Flexradio] what is cpdr do ?

[Lee Mushel]

You guys are doing it again!   I've warned you in the past that topics like 
this bring back old memories and then I settle down with a cup of coffee 
thinking about them and fail to get any of my chores done!  The other day 
when I was out in the shed which is actually my junk box.   I saw the 
compander I built (two tube project) in 1958 as I recall.   I found it quite 
amazing that an integrated circuit was available at one time to do this 
function.   Young squirts have no idea what goes through the mind when they 
try to explain these new complex ideas to dumb old guys like me!  It's hard 
for me to understand questions regarding sound reproduction since I built my 
first hi-fi in 1955 and even today it wouldn't cross my mind to buy some 
ready made thing when you can have the fun of building it yourself!  When 
I first saw that jack on the back of the Flex5000A I almost cried with 
pleasure!   I thought I'd have to go through the computer headphone jack! 
Today I listen to Video One input on a retired audio receiver.   Yes, the 
3000 is Video Two!

Hi Joe

 

I use Bose Companion 3 Series-II speakers with my Flex-5000A and really like
them!  

 

One thing to keep in mind is that you will probably want to feed both the
audio-out from your computer and the audio-out from your Flex to the same
powered speakers.  I use a Y-adaptor to combine the two inputs before
connecting them to the Bose speakers.

 

One bonus with the Companion 3 is that you have a very nice separate AF
control / mute button / headphone jack in a small desktop module.

Re: [Flexradio] What amplified speakers are good- with sub?

[Tim Ellison]

One word of caution.  Putting a Y audio cable between the PC and the 
FLEX-x000 powered speaker output will cause a ground loop between those two 
devices.  It is best to electrically isolate the two sources or use an audio 
switcher.

Re: [Flexradio] What amplified speakers are good- with sub?

One nice feature of the Bose Companion II is dual inputs - one set for the PC 
and one for the Flex.

One word of caution.  Putting a Y audio cable between the PC and the 
FLEX-x000 
powered speaker output will cause a ground loop between those two devices.  It 
 is best to electrically isolate the two sources or use an audio switcher.

 Hi Joe
 
  
 
I use Bose Companion 3 Series-II speakers with my Flex-5000A and really like 
 them!  
 
  
 
One thing to keep in mind is that you will probably want to feed both the 
audio-out from your computer and the audio-out from your Flex to the same 
powered speakers.  I use a Y-adaptor to combine the two inputs before 
connecting 
 them to the Bose speakers.
 
  
 
One bonus with the Companion 3 is that you have a very nice separate AF control 
 / mute button / headphone jack in a small desktop module.

 I would like to replace my 2.1 Dell speakers with a better quality (RF

I use the powered speaker output on the 5000A to feed the line in on my
audio card.
Requires the computer to listen to the 5000A, but is more flexible.

Re: [Flexradio] What amplified speakers are good- with sub?

[Tim Ellison]

 
Yeah, but unfortunately you still have the same ground loop dilemma with that 
configuration too.  It is still best to electrically isolate the second source. 
 You do not want stray currents flowing through the speakers, especially if 
they are high frequency (RF).

Re: [Flexradio] What amplified speakers are good- with sub?

[Ray - K9DUR]

Sheldon,

As Tim mentioned, using a Y cable may cause issues.  What I do is feed the
PWR SPKR OUT from my FLEX-5000A to the Line In jack on my PC's soundcard.
Then my PC speakers are used for both the radio  the PC audio.

Re: [Flexradio] What amplified speakers are good?

[Brian Lloyd]

I just picked up a pair of Cyber Acoustics CA2992 amplified speakers
at Fry's for $19.95. These are 8W/chan 2-way speakers with two inputs.
They sound great on the F3K and are loud enough to fill the classroom
when I am giving a demonstration and want all the kids to be able to
hear. *MUCH* better than the built-in amp in the K2 we were using. I
use the second input to plug in our 2M rig when we are using that. No
EMI that I have been able to discern.

For $20 I don't think you are likely to beat them.

Re: [Flexradio] What amplified speakers are good- with sub?

[Lazy Senior]

This thread is basically useless. Different speakers for different folks.

Here is a REALLY good suggestion. Make sure you can take them back if 
you do not like em.


I originally bought the Bose Companion speakers which Flex recommended 
and some here seem to like.
Like most Bose speakers they were terrible . No highs, no lows, yep 
gotta be Bose.


Got my money back and got M-audio AV-30 from Best Buy. These are really 
sweet on my Flex 5000. These are under $100 and put the Bose Companions 
to shame.
Remember, buy from a place you can get your money back if you do not 
like em.

Drax, I use the Bose Companion II Speakers. They sound very good on the Flex
5000 and also on a K3.

I bought mine a couple of years ago when Best Buy had them on sale plus I
had a discount coupon. Just recently I was at our local Sam's Club and
noticed they had them for sale at a good price.

 had a discount coupon. Just recently I was at our local Sam's Club and
 noticed they had them for sale at a good price.

 What amplified speakers are good to use with the Flex 5000a?



 I the computer ones I'm using now don't have enough amplification to deal
 with the line level output of the radio.

 I'm looking for good amp and RF rejection.

Re: [Flexradio] What amplified speakers are good?

[Steven L Hess]

I have Bose Companion 2 speakers in use with my Flex-3000. They
I have the same in my shack.  I like them.

They sound way better than my TS-2000 speaker and I always though that
was the best Amateur Radio audio I had heard.

Insignia -- Best Buy store brand. Seem identical to those sold at 
Staples under a different name. Plenty of volume; no RF intrusion.

[Flexradio] What amplified speakers are good?

[howa...@howardz.com]

Drax,

I purchased AV40s.  But, I stopped using them with my Flex 5000a.

What sounds better to me is the GAP Hear It Inline Module (the best NR 
unit - made in the UK by BHI and sold in the USA by GAP) along with a 
cheap $10 Jetstream JTSP10 external speaker.
