TODAY I BOUGHT A NEW 6300 AND IT WORKS FINE. BUT I CAN'T SWITCH MY AMPLIFIER - IT WORKS ONLY WITH ITS OWN HF-VOX. WHERE CAN I CHANGE THIS SETTINGS?

    Also make sure your phono keyline is connected to the TX connector the yellow one nearest the powerpole connectors and not in the ptt connector near the usb and ethernet sockets. Cheers Paul

    Hi Paul,

    per the Quick Start Guide for the Flex series of radios the white phono connector labeled TX (near the power pole connector) is correct for keying your amp relay.
