Flexradio Mods - a WWRF 'First'

SDR-1000

Thanks for the sugestions. I tried all the sugestions and could not get it to work. I gave up.

Curious if this will work with newer versions of powerSDR?
If anyone has any new info on this please let me know. You can PM also.

Thanks in advance.
 
Still Looking for Working Zip File

I downloaded Flexradio Full TX.zi(p) and it only worked once as described in this thread. I then downloaded flex mod.zi(p) and got the message "no files to extract". Can someone please post a working zip file or suggest how to correct the issue with either of the zip files already posted. Thank you.

Hello All: Gee Whiz whats all the ho raw about getting the right software for the flex radios. Doesn't the manufacture want to sell more radios? I would be interested in a flex radio if didn't need to fight the darn software thing.

Seems they have a ramrod up their derrieres about out-of-band use.

Some folks whose opinion I trust think that the resident non-volatile firmware on board the Flex has a specific transmit lockout between 26 and 28 MHz. And the source code for that firmware is jealously guarded. Updates are applied strictly as the executable binary. Makes bypassing the lockout an enormous chore, disassembling (de-compiling) it.

"Opening up" the pc-resident software doesn't matter if the code executing inside the radio refuses to transmit on 11 meters.

Don't really know for sure. Don't own a Flex. Not really planning to for now.
