The company has a right to make improvements in it's design whenever they see
fit. Surely you have no objection to this, do you?
Happy 4th!

That link was working earlier today but is down now. I don't know if it was

Lee,
Would you place your VOM across the key while plugged into the 5000 and
measure the current that would normally be flowing through the key when
it is closed? On my 1000 the current is about 5 mA and on my IC-7000 it
is about 200 uA. I placed a NPN across the keying circuit on the 1000

I normally run my F5K with an external keyer through the serial port, which is
a hold over from the SDR-1000 days. It made for an easy way to switch the
keyer between 3 radios, by merely opening up PSDR SETUP and turning on the
correct serial port to the radio I wanted to key. I tried using th
Looks like our designers missed something when designing the Flex5000A and

paying for upgrades to fully use some features.

Dear Flexers,
At the end of July, the FLEX-5000 will have been in production for a full
year. We would like to thank you, our customers, who have made the
FLEX-5000 launch such a great success. At the end of June, our sales for
2008 exceeded all of 2007. Further, we sold out and completed ship
Bob,
Under Setup => General => Hardware Config check the "Use Ext. Ref
Input" BNC jack is already on the rear panel to accept the reference
signal, but as stable as the 5K is, I would be surprised if you need an
external reference marker.

Unless I missed it I didn't see any specific setup information in the 5000A
User's Manual for using the EXT REF INPUT with a GPS based 10 MHz signal
standard. Do you have to turn on this connection within PowerSDR? Any
suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks and 73,

Except when there's no alternative ;-)
Some of the modes will suffer worse than others. One thing to keep in mind

Congratulations, Eric! It is good to hear Marion, Caleb and you are all doing

The PA section should be built to handle 50% + duty cycle and 1-2 minute
key down periods (at least), indefinitely at full rated output. No point
having a 50w PA that you have to back down to 25w or less to run WSJT or
other extended TX period digital modes.

Maarten,
My main objection to the inter-stage brick approach is contained in your
own caveat, "If properly designed ..." It is easier said than done for
the vast majority of amateurs, including those with RF EE degrees like
me. You should be congratulated for finding and using, or perhaps

Brian,
Although I believe there was some initial intent to include the digital
modes in PowerSDR, it was decided not to re-invent the wheel. There are so
many excellent digital mode programs out there, it was better to focus the
limited programming resources on improving PowerSDR.
Now, to answer
PowerSDR is not a digital mode program. There are no current plans to make it
one since there are sooo many good programs available to operate digital
modes. FLEXability is PowerSDR's first name. There is no need to reinvent the
wheel.
