Is it possible to change the label for specific frequencies? For instance if I
am in general coverage mode and I want to assign call letters of a SWL station
to a specific frequency, I cannot see how to do that.
Is it possible or do I have to edit the database or are the labels hard coded?
73,
In my humble opinion, what I think is a shame is that with all of the
engineering knowledge of Flex, that they did engineer a resolution to the
issue and then bite the bullet repairing the issues with either a retrofit or
replacement. The bad press will potentially hurt the reputation of the co

Why not work around the problem by making an attenuator to knock the 52 watts
down to the 20 watts you need?
A cheap piece of RG-58 or smaller (lossier) coax of the right length attached
to the input of your amp is a guaranteed way to make it work right.
You want a 50/20 = 2.5:1 attenuator whic
I am in the process of assembling a small 432 Mhz EME station using digital
modes. I have the following equipment:
Flex 1500

SSB SP7000 preamp
And SSB DCW 2004B power coupler and sequencer
Since I do not want to hot switch the T/R relays or fry the preamp

I don't know the design values, but crude measurements on my display

wide by about 620 pixels high.

This is a known fault of the VU5K. It does not have good power
stability at the lower end. In a phone conversation, a senior Flex
representative acknowledged this shortcoming to me. With the module
being discontinued, there will, in all probability, never be a fix for
this problem. I
Well, 1024x768 seems to be the minimum, so say 2048x768 should do it. I do not
think it will allow more than one instance, however. …JMM

Brian,
Well said.
I'm new to the Flex group and have waited many years for a True SDR

was way to disjointed for prime-time. The Flex6x
I am trying to drive an amp with 20 watts with my VU5K. I can not get a

then it will slowly drop to 14-15 watts after 30 seconds. At full output I
am getting 52 watts and it will remain steady within 2 watts. But at the

David,You're behind the curve on this one. The President of Flex has recently

The "new architecture" is currently in development as we speak but will take
several more months before it is ready for beta testing. In fact, I have

New in box and unused RM HLA150V amp designed for use with the FT-817 or

Planned to use it with the Flex 1500 here but has never left the original
box. Covers 10/12/15/17/20/40/80/160. Has 6 low pass filters and will
autoswitch if your rig will allow or can be manually switched. Prot

HI BOB,
I assumed the v/u was discontinued because they told us they were having
problems getting filters and maybe other parts. I should have been more
specific.

Steve,
The v/u maybe discontinued, but unless you heard something I have not heard,
the 5000a has not been discontinued.

Todd, Assuming you have the bird connected via a good short cable close to the

consistently low with output power. I get a little over 50w out
