Smart Meter from WoodBox

I realize Woodbox Radio has closed their operation.  But does anyone know if it is possible to still get the executable file for the Smart Meter?    I used it all the time.  But I lost the file, and after a Windows re-install....          Cant find any information online.   Any thoughts??

    My apologies guys, I posted the wrong file to my link. I posted the Flex Meter file, not the Smart SMeter file. Thanks to Jean for posting the correct one.

    Would anyone care to share a copy with me? My email is good on QRZ or N5VX@ARRL.NET. The Woodbox site is apparently closed.

    Thanks everyone..

    I am curious if there is a way to change the size on the desktop for this program

    I had to stop using the WoodBox S-meter. I was getting annoying drops in the audio and waterfall. They were very brief, so no real info was lost, but they were highly annoying. I initially assumed it was the network, but that was all ok. I finally shut down the s-meter and now I don't get any more drops. I have been operating a while without it and realize that I don't really miss it.

    Not that I can find. Nothing about that in the documentation.

    Lately, I've been finding that if I connect more than a couple 3rd party apps to my Flex, I get those dropouts that Len mentioned. Don't know what SDR version that it started to occur.

    Bill, it might not be the radio causing the dropout, but the network and network switch. Internally, it isn't uncommon to have a lot of utilities connected while operating and no dropouts are heard.

    As a test, try changing it out especially if it is a low cost Gigabit switch.

    Thanks Mike. It's a 16 port TP-Link, TL-SG1016D. Any comment on quality?
