happiest day of my life

ricky

flex is like a boat two happy days the day u get it and the day you get rid of it today I sold my flex


now I have a radio that the power cord does not fall out of 

it comes on within second after I push the button

the outboard display does not cause the radio to start up sideways screen

and my mike and cw and phone plugs in on front

So what fabulous radio do you have?

I would not bother asking him, there is something wrong with his comments. One of them is not a problem, the other has been corrected a long time ago. Very behind in information.

My power cable has not fallen out of my remote 6500 or local 6600. Guess I am not tripping over it. You can’t please everybody. My 6600 has performed beautifully during CQ WPX this weekend.

I bought my 6700 in 2014. No only has the power cord not fallen out, it has never given me a problem other than those problems I have caused myself, and I will never sell it I’m currently in Hawaii, and spent a wonderful day operating an Icom legacy radio from the Battleship Missouri Amateur Radio Station KH6BB. A once in a lifetime opertunity for me, but oh how I missed my Flex. It was like I was operating with a blindfold. Just my 2cents worth. YMMV Winston VK7WH

The day I had to sell my boat was a sad day. I had to move across the country and could not take it with me. I suspect selling my Flex would be even worse. No plans to do that but if I did my Flex 660M and 6400M will both be going with me.

I think I will have the same feeling as Rick when soon departing with my back-up IC-7300 ..    Despite it having all the features Rick prefer over the Flex 6700 I'm in love with ..

Burt's call is K1OIK  and, in my opinion, is a kind and thoughtful man... just saying.

I can’t remember the last time I shut my 6600 off. Oh yeah, when I built my new desk. My 6500 at the remote site has been on over a year now. You never know when you have the itch to work remote. Dave wo2x

My call was dropped from my profile at some point (I have added it back), but I did sign with my full name and photo.  It would be easy to look me up on QRZ.  Same with Burt.  His call is not listed, but easy to find.  My point was meant to be a general one, I don't give as much credibility to any post anywhere when the poster chooses to remain anonymous.

The 6300 has mic and CW plugs in front; the display is always landscape; the power plug stays in, you can leave it turned on; you could have had it all.

I don't beleive his post...

Does the word "TROLL" pop up Bill. It sure did to me even before reading all the replies. Not worth my time.

Bill -VA3WTB

That's what I was trying to say Doug without really saying it,,lol

Burt Fisher

Electricity is free for you?

Burt Fisher

Doug hams have a habit of calling those who they disagree with a troll. Other than the plug falling out he has a point.

If I am not going to use my 6400 I shut down my rig and the PS. See no reason to use electricity for no reason,

There was a ham in California who said the happiest day of his life was receiving a QSL card from Bhutan. And he that included his marriage, children, when I pointed that out in a forum I was banned for a week.
