I can't bring myself to say that the FLEX-5000 looks sexy at all, let alone sexiER. I find the specs. very attractive, but the size is rather a turn-off: I'd prefer something not as tall. I have no problem with the absence of knobs. 73 Alan NV8A On 04/29/07 01:19 pm David Queen wrote: A

I kinda like the form factor of the 5000A. It is not just another me too box that is approximately 2x wide as it is tall. I also like the fact that it doesn't try to look like a mini PC tower either, it's a *radio* not a PC after all. As for knobs and a on-panel screen, no thanks. Why would I

I think the PowerMate knob works--and looks--great when mounted right on the front of the SDR-1000. At the bottom of this blog entry is a photo and comments of how I routed the cabling: http://sdr-1000.blogspot.com/2006_07_02_archive.html I used the ShuttlePro ver. 2.0 for a while, and even had

Now that the XYL has been reading about how sexy the 5000 is, she is knitting me a cover for the 1000. She seems to think it will make the 1000 sexier. See what you guys started? I think she is trying to tell me, I don't need a 5000, but. My wants are always stronger than my needs.
