![]() It also has built in FireWire so I wouldn’t have worry about add on cards. This is more than enough to run the Flex plus I now have an extremely small and quiet and cool running PC at 7.7 x 7.7 x 1.4 inches high. I wanted something very small so I bought an Apple Mac Mini with the core i7 processor, 8 GB of memory and a 1 TB Fusion drive. Recently I decided to get a new PC that would be dedicated to the Flex 3000 when I want to use the radio. Also, only having two monitors I run out of screen real estate between the radio and my work. While the PC is powerful enough by itself it does run out of power when I have all of my development programs plus the Flex 3000 working. I have had a Flex 3000 for a year or so but I work from home as a programmer and have been sharing my development PC with the Flex, not the best situation. With a Software Defined Radio (SDR) like the Flex 3000 or Flex 5000 it is the same only some of those add ons are software instead of hardware. When you get a new radio there are always some accessories or add ons you need to really get everything working. I have updated the configuration article keeping the Flex 3000 settings and adding the Flex 5000 settings. I used these as the starting point and everything works great. Anyway, couldn’t have been easier since I had all my settings documented here. I recently upgraded to a Flex 5000 from the 3000.
