" Some day we hope to get HF data from PowerSDR so no additional logging software will be needed to switch antennas."
You have my vote, yessir.....bring it on. -----Original Message----- From: flexedge-boun...@flex-radio.biz [mailto:flexedge-boun...@flex-radio.biz] On Behalf Of Phil Theis Sent: Sunday, 24 April 2011 1:06 PM To: flexradio@flex-radio.biz; flexe...@flex-radio.biz Subject: [FlexEdge] FlexWire interface for VHF UCB I have several beta test positive results so I am now ready to take orders for the daughter board for the UCB. This will take FlexWire instructions from the 5000, 3000 or 1500, although I have not had it tested on a 3000. Currently PowerSDR only sends instructions out the FlexWire port for bands that are identified in the XVTRs form. Data values are identified in the UCB form where the FlexWire output is selected. This interface board is a fully constructed and tested surface mount board consisting of a DB9 FlexWire connector and short cable to the small board which plugs into the UCB. The board uses the same I2C chip, the PCA9555, that is used internally in the Flex products. The output of the chip then is routed through a header set of pins to the existing UCB. The user needs to install a supplied header on the UCB. I have been using this interface along with the PowerSDR code for over a year now (along with a handful of others) and it has been working without a hitch. My station has automatic switching all the way from 160 meters through 24GHz. VHF and above selects the appropriate transverter via the interface and UCB. The low bands are switched using band data from N1MM using DDUTIL to share logging and DXLAB. Completed FlexWire interface boards will sell for 25 dollars shipped in the lower 48, elsewhere plus additional shipping. I will accept Paypal at this email. For those who have emailed me waiting, I will now go back and respond to your request, in case I miss someone, please feel free to send another request. I do plan on bringing several to Dayton. Thanks for all those who have been waiting.
