found an ad in the latest QST for the FLEX-3000, price is now 1500 usd. not bad. also found that there is a linux software package that runs the FLEX's. anyone have any experience on the FLEX (any model) as it would as a PSKmail server. (run concurently w/PSKmail). i'm thinking hard about a SDR, and the price looks like it's do'able. eddie
