Hello
Prior to this morning, there were 8 items at special pricing. There are
now 24 specially-priced items.
The FLEX-5000x bundles have been on special pricing for a while and
continue to be so - and other items have been added, including:
-- FLEX-5000 ATU
-- FLEX-5000 RX2
-- Heil PR-781
Has there been a price increase on the Flex5000 or are the UK dealers trying
to make a quick buck by increasing the price by approx $400 dollars

According to xe.com
that makes the flex
3,740.32 USDin the uk.and an extra
588.507 USDfor the ATU
getting rather expensive over here considering the pound is only 4 or 5 cents

: [Flexradio] Price Increase In The Uk
If the dollar weakens, that causes US exports to other countries to be cheaper,
not more expensive. It's the price of foreign goods brought into the US that
goes up under this scenario.

Heh, from the looks of it, they've cloned every (nasty) detail of the

It is modular either with or without the 100 watt amp. I could see even a

Well, Rats! I have no need for the 100W version, as my intended use is
mostly as a driver for my VHF - uWave transverters. If I want to use it
on HF I have several external amplifiers that will do the job.
The 1 watt SDR-1000 is being discontinued on Feb 1, 2007.
The 100 watt SDR-1000 price as of Feb 1, 2007 will be $1499. This is an
increase of $100.
