Will software version 2.0 be available at Dayton 2017 ?

John Molenda

I would like to know if software version 2.0 will be out in time for dayton this year ?

NDA.... BUT some parts of V2.0 were visible to the Public at Visalia

So at least those parts would seem very likely

You will need to wait on pins and needles to see what Flex actually reveals at Dayton.

If Flex told you, they would have to **** you.

What is this "Dayton" of which you speak?

Do you mean the Xenia Hamvention?

KY6LA_Howard

You must men the Xenia Cow Sheds!

Many manufacturers showcase new products at Hamvention. Flex has several times. If 2.0 is ready to show off, I'm sure they will attract a lot of booth traffic for it. If it's not, well, they can show off some mighty fine hardware and still get lots of traffic. Always eager to see what the Austin Skunkworks has come up with for us!

Just be sure to watch your step while on the premises. I'm told that race horses will be on the property.

We are planning on demonstrating the SmartLink feature and a few other goodies that will be in SmartSDR v2.0 at Dayton (Xenia).  SmartLink is the capability to remotely access your radio over the Internet without using a VPN.  We will have several radios located worldwide that you can operate at the booth, from a PC running SmartSDR, a Maestro and the SmartSDR iOS app on an iPad. Because there may or may not be a local control point operator, the demo will be limited to receive only.

SmartSDR v2.0 will not be available for sale as it is not released yet.  We still have some more work to do on it before we release it.

I fully understand. The homeowner looked at me yesterday and asked when was the roof going to be put on. I told her when the roof trusses get delivered!

Hi Tim. I am more than happy to have my flex available for the demonstration. The radio is connect to a 307 ft extended double zepp. 73, Mike

Hi Tim, are you able to confirm if it have the ability for multiple clients to simultaneously connect to the radio at the same time?

Tim - W4TME

Thanks for the offer, but have it covered.

Tim - W4TME

I can confirm that is a feature planned for the 2.x release cycle.  We will not be showing the multi-client feature at Hamvention.

rfoust

Ok, thanks for the response!  Looking forward to v2!

Apparently the foundation has been poured at least.

@Tim

If you have downloaded the Green Heron remote control app, I can let you into my remote 6700 and control the Radio on/off and RX antenna direction switching on both RX ports.  The 4O3A 8X2 switch will put the right TX antenna on the radio in case there is Xmitting involved regardless of xmit antenna port selected.

Since there is no trip to Xenia for me, I hope someone videos some of the capabilities of V2.0 to share.

We have plenty of stations lined up.  Thanks for the offer.
I am sure someone will be live streaming it.  Maybe I'll do it on Facebook

rfoust

YES!! please livestream a demo of all the new stuff on facebook.

Tim, your post today has a bad link in it to the Smart Link flyer. Just wanted to let you know it is 404'ing.  Didn't know how else to reach you on here.

I'm guessing the link was taken down deliberately because it contained references to (still unannounced) products -- likely to be announced at Xenia.
