I have a new HRFIO board for the Flex 5000A for sale. Part # is
5000-HRFIO-34C. Bought as a spare for the 5000A I no longer own. I believe
it's the latest rev. of this board. Make me a reasonable offer, I forgot

I have my Flex 5000A w/2nd Rx and ant tuner for sale. $1850 and have had
several interested but no final sale yet so it's still available.
I agree on the performance of the 5000A vs. most radios selling for equal
and sometimes much more! It's an excellent rig for the money.

I have an extra 880KHz elliptical low pass filter by Clifton Laboratories
that will allow the Flex 3000, and 5000 work through the Broadcast band down
to about 400 KHz without the birdies and mixing products that make the radio
otherwise unuseable. Switch this filter in at about 1000 KHz and
Yup!

It appears to me that Neal is offering help to those that don't buy his Flex

Hi Bill and others,
To truly optimize any transmitter for AM, including SDR's, you should employ
some form of negative peak limiting to eliminate distortion and clipping due
to overmodulation. None of the Hi Fi boxes folks put on their rigs do this
since this functionality in not included.
Another possibility:
The load presented to the transmitter may (probably) is different band to
band. This is a problem for solid state amplifiers that are designed for a
50 ohm load. If the load is higher than 50 ohms, the transmitter output is
undercoupled and will produce more IMD with
The ad stated that it was hit by lightning. Maybe he already sent it back
to Flex and Flex found it to be unrepairable due to extensive damage?

It's caused by the inrush current charging the power supply capacitor with
the resulting current surge in the power transformer making it ring. The

I'm not sure why folks use the pecker to tune a rig. Is it because you
are trying to squeeze out that last few dB that you can get on peaks but not
on a 100% duty cycle? If so, it won't result in the best loading for your
amplifier especially on SSB for linearity. What works much better is
DDUtil will emulate the Kenwood protocol to a RS-232 port if you have one.
That's what I use.

In a single SCU with let's say two slice receivers, one set to look at just
the 160M band and the other set to look at 6M, how is the front end
preselection done? Would two band pass filters be put in parallel to
handle the preselection for the two slice receivers' frequency ranges? If
so,

Hi Folks,
Is it possible to run split frequency and use a different mode on transmit?
For example, receive SAM on VFO A and transmit LSB on VFO B.
I tried the AB to load VFO B for transmit on B but the mode doesn't follow,
just the frequency.

Speeding up convergence of the SAM would be great as a selection in DSP to
set it for one's operating style on AM. Fast AM break-in QSO's are
sometimes difficult when folks are spread out hundreds if not thousands of
cycles!

Hi Tim,
Thank you for that info. I was about to remove my previous versions,
probably about 5 of them prior to 2.0.22, since I don't use them now.
How do I know which one installed the Flexwire driver? Should just leave
them alone? I have not gone to RC1 yet, still on 2.0.22.
Thanks!
