I just received my FLEX-1500.
====snip
PowerSDR is a screen hog.
The -1500 does not support VOX. It doesn't even have a speaker amplifier.
##PowerSDR has also been evaluated for sensitivity in weak-signal
work and found wanting
Etc.
Here is my thought:
Elecraft makes a box about the size of the -1500. It has a basic 10W
transceiver
===snip
We'd fall a bit short with no external reference input. We could do a
frequency locked system with the Si570, but not a phase-locked one.
Then again, how many people are really doing moonbounce and need that
additional stability and accuracy?
## About 2500-3000 eme'rs world-wide
and don't forget the microwavers...no idea how many there are?
The K3 is very popular in both groups. The last radio that was
snapped up by eme was the FT-847.
The rest is interesting read. I am hoping the development will go
into the existing K3
