Way too high. Turn off more
Gary,
Unless your local noise floor is very high, you should see the displayed
noise floor drop a lot when you enable the preamp. That's because you're
lowering the total receiver noise figure from about 22 dB to about 2 dB.
You can really see it if you connect a 50 ohm load to the antenna por
Thanks, Tim.
I installed the DPCLAT tool. I am seeing consistent 1000 micro-sec latency
on the DPCLAT tool. Oh, there are a few drops to 500 microseconds, and a

Mark,
KWM switches can be big problems and none of the HW manufacturers will
guarantee PC operation through a KWM switch, (unless you are running
Server HW) the switching of the keyboard and mouse will throw the OS

Have you tried resetting the database. With all your crashes, it could be
corrupted.
WSJT will change around the soundcard device numbers when soundcards are

I got my 5000 Monday. I have everything working fb and last night, during
the opening, I installed a new P50VDG preamp.
I use a 3 el SteppIR with 6 meter passive element with about 75 feet of RG

The gain jumped 24 db, like it should and I adjusted the gain control to

The BAs should be a good fit. Nice slim line design for a 3-way speaker.
The important thing to remember is that when selecting speakers for a FLEX
radio (and the SDR-1000 for that matter), is that you want to use really good
wide range speakers that have a flat response from ~50ish Hz up past
I went on AMAZON and got a great little 40 watt stereo amp with 3 inputs on
back (RCA), a stereo headphone jack on the front, and volume, mic gain,

Now I have the only knob I missed - the volume control. Manufacturer is

Ok Neal ... I am going to take your advice on this one. I have been looking
for new speakers for the flex ... not happy with the Logitech 2.1 system I
have. I found these same BA MM220 speakers in Canada at Tiger Direct for
CAD$35 ... we can almost never get similar deals in Canada as in the USA.

Everything appears to be good except you do not need the AGC-T set that high
with the extra gain provided by the preamp. Set the AGC-T as per this KB
article.

I think the Sounds Sweet speaker is actually just a subwoofer from a
