[Flexradio] Flex-5000A ECO's

When the discussions started on the new V/U modules there was a posting that stated that when a Flex-5000 radio was sent in for the V/U board installation all ECO's for the radio would be performed at that time. I was not aware that any ECO's existed for 5000's. When I searched the Knowledge B

I want to add one comment. The SafeMode parameter really most useful for long duration DPC "spikes". I have one PC where the average latency is less than 180 us, but I must use SafeMode1 because I have a nasty "trigger" (MS Outlook) that when mail is received (it is the NIC card causing the DP

You are correct, a 50 year old radio may have its drawbacks but I compare them to hard copy photos. In 50 years no digital photo will be readable. Technology has its plusses as in the Flex. A friend saw it and preferred his knob radio. No way I prefer my IC-756PROIII over the Flex. But my first

Neither do I, but does it really matter? In 50 years I'll be dead (or unable to operate) and way before that time something else better will have come along and I'll be using it. I didn't buy my SDR with the intent of it being a mainstay in my shack in 2059. No radios with ICs will be usable

Bad news about the change to the V/U module spec.
