Like I said, it does most of the things that I want it to do. At the end of the day I figured it was easier to scrounge around my collection of junked computers and build one from many. So, Vista will remain my desktop OS for the time being. The Flex box is a dual boot system, XP Pro for the Flex ...

I have to share the response I got from one of the locals in reference to my 'review,' followed by my reply.

Tom,

I hope you didn't think I would let your "review" of the Flex1500 go without
a comment! "not ready for prime time." Now I think you mean it isn't like
sliding the styrofoam out of ...

For a company thats supposed to be on the bleeding edge of the technology, the information on their website is pretty stagnant.

In short, it's not ready for prime time.

I've had it for a week now and it's already slated for a return trip to the factory for repair.

The first issue was setting it up to work on my desktop. Vista is not a good OS to use with the Flex 1500. I spent a couple hours trying to make it all work ...

Sponsored by Mike, N0EXE, and living off my AC and DSL, will eventually be on the air if I ever get the sound card sorted out.

I should send them a link and invite them.

For the record, I'm the organizer of this travesty.

Is there a tree? Will there be any feats of strength?

No tree, but I can almost promise that there will be an aluminum pole somewhere. Feats of strength most assuredly! When Art, W0JDC strains to lift the oscilloscope of death, it is a thing to be admired by hams the world over. There will also ...

The Riverland Amateur Radio Club will once again be holding it's annual hamfest at the County Fairgrounds in Galesville Wisconsin. The event starts at 8 AM and runs until the last ham leaves. Admission is $1 donation, tables indoors will be a $5 donation, and tailgating is free. VEC test session ...

I didn't get to attend as I was assisting at an entry level firefighter course through the local tech school. Would have been a total waste except for the one hot babe in the class.

Why didn't I hear about that fest in Wisconsin last year ? Have a friend in Whitewater and we try to hit a lot of fests. Missed Baraboo last year. Nice, small one with friendly people.

Think the fest I'd like to run should have the ham radio version of the "Soup Nazi" standing at the gate ...

I organized one of those last year...and am doing so again this year. List it with the ARRL and they will send you a box of books to give away. Also take a look at the Scott, N3FJP's AClog website, he'll donate a $39 software package to hamfests that expect 100 or more hams to show up.

This has to be the fastest hijacking of a thread ever.

Check the PPPoE settings on your router.

Hello Tom,

Actually I believe we only sell the 703+ so that will be what we replace it with. The 60M mod will also be done at no extra charge since it was paid for on your original unit.

If you ever need anything in the future Tom, please let me know. I seen the email you sent to our Tech ...

Hello Tom,

I do apologize for not getting back to you sooner regarding your 703 in for service. At this time it is awaiting for a part to come in from Japan and the ETA is not until mid Nov. I am sure we can both agree that waiting till then is out of the question. I would actually like to ...

I just emailed Icom and asked if anyone was ever going to get in touch with me in a timely manner as I was told they would in an email dated 23 September.

There is a FAQ on the Yaesu website about cranking the output on the 817 and they say:

Can I turn up the transmit power on my FT-817 to 10 Watts?

Don't even think about it.

While the transistors may be capable of putting out more power, everything else about the transceiver--the bias, the ...

That YooHoo FT-817 is really starting to look good!

No, the 703+ is the current model, the 703 has been discontinued. You'd think they'd just say the hell with it and send me a + just to keep a customer. Ah well....I always wanted a Yeasu or another Kenwood anyway.

Beats me, but it must be pretty damn special.

I purchased my 703 from HRO in October of 2004, by the end of January 2005, it was in the bench in Bellvue being repaired after it quit pumping RF in to the aether. Took about a month to get back to me and worked fine up until I took it with on a once in a lifetime family vacation to Ireland. Once ...

That's not working either. I think it's got something to do with the Netopia ADSL router.

OK, I'll give that a try in a while. Echolink is taking a back seat to the 6M opening I've got going on at the moment.

This is what I've got.

Anyone familiar with setting up Echolink to work through an ADSL connection and a D-Link router? The ADSL modem is Netopia if that makes a difference. I tried to open the correct ports the other day but misconfigured something as I'm still unable to make a connection to Echolink.

Any of you guys see OWO at Hamcom and give him Bryans regards?

Rochester, ?? NY? MN? Where?

Give up a few 18 packs of Bud Lite and you too could be a card carrying, QST reading member of the amateur radio community.

if it boils down to half a second, you were going to die anyway.

17 is an underused band. I check it out every afternoon after work. There is almost always some DX station calling CQ. CW on 17 tends to be the ragchew variety as well. I tortured some poor sould who was working CW mobile, with my sloppy fist on afternoon. So OM, how's your prostate?
