This book includes useful tips and tricks for the configuration and operation of the fabulous FlexRadio FLEX-8000 series of transceivers. It includes the FLEX-6000 radios because they are very similar and they use the same SmartSDR software. I cover SmartSDR on the Maestro and M model radios, SmartSDR for Windows, and SmartSDR for Mac. I have not included the dogparkSDR client for the Mac, or the iOS, iPad, and iPhone versions of SmartSDR, which are similar to the Mac version.

I have discussed the differences between the 6000 and 8000 transceivers and the differences between the 'M' and the black front panel versions. The book includes the setup for two operators sharing a radio using multiFLEX and remote operation using SmartLink, as well as FR Stack, SmartControl, Slice Master, DAX, and SmartSDR CAT.

You can order my books from Amazon, Kindle, or the RSGB bookshop and some radio dealers (DX Engineering and Techoman in NZ).
