[K3PZN-List] Another New Rig

[wa3mej at comcast.net]

Pete, any amateur that likes to compete in frequency measuring tests or that likes to characterize unknown signals could use that level of uncertianty.  This system is an offshoot of the one I saw at Dayton several years ago.  They had a demo unit and it had 10 or 20 separate receiver units and had a target audiance of the alphabet agencies.

Impressive technology!  Interesting what can be done by connecting an 
antenna directly to an A/D converter. 

The FLEX-6500 model has one receiver or "Signal Capture Unit" (SCU) and the 
FLEX-6700 has two.  Each SCU and processor captures the whole spectrum from 
.03 to 77 MHz and provides four spectrum displays simultaneously, each 384 
KHz wide, and demodulates four signals simultaneously with four independent 
audios.  The FLEX-6700R adds the frequency range of 155-175MHz.  [I don't 
see individual audio outputs so I suspect the four audios are provided 
digitally.  Wonder if two or more can be combined on the headphone jack?] 

It is obvious that FLEX-6000 series has more than just the radio amateur in 
mind.  What amateur needs 1 x 10^-12 frequency accuracy, or even 1 x 10^-8? 

FLEX has a lot of software development to do to launch this radio. 

Interesting times.  What lies ahead?
