    Hi Ben the ground wire is for ensuring you have no rf issues. Wonder how you did a factory reset. Send me some screen shots this evening and lets see. When you say no receive is there audio but no stations being received. Regards Gavin ZS6BG

    I use  a tool call GreenShot for making my screen shots.  Very awesome program, it is free and it really helps diagnose issues when we can see the screen.  http://getgreenshot.org/

    I hate buying used equipment cause within a week or month you discover the reason it was being sold and usually its not the reason they tell you when your buying it.

    Yes, that can be indeed...
    Even if, in our case, we're located not too far from each other so that can be a good point for me...
    Thx

    Dear Tim,
    So, I've tried connecting on the XVRX and it works just straight... But the guy selling the Flex is now telling me that it's something about the configuration and that all the ports are working...
    What do you (Tim and others) think?

    Thank you and regards,    ;-)

    What does the settings tab show when clicked at the top bar. Goto the KE9NS site and look at the windows settings recommended your cpu % is showing 38% in the snapshot which seems high to me. Also you might check out the flex downloads for the manual on the sdr1500 which may provide other tips. What version of windows are you using?

    Ben I would start the help desk ticket I found they answered all my questions even before i bought the used flex 3000 back then im sure its the same way now they will most likely help you out and give you things to do and check at no charge until it is clear its a hardware issue.
