    I use a Kensington Slimblade Trackball and rotate it on the horizontal axis for tuning the radio. One device works well for all PC and Flex functions.

    Sasi...what Flex are you using the Elad TMate on?  What does it do for you?

    John, I am running a Flex 3K. I can pretty much control most of the routine features (AF, RF Power, VFO, Filters, Tune, S and SWR meter, etc) and see the waterfall displayed on the wide screen. I also use the Elad to control my Elecraft K2-100 with the N2PY software

    Hello Sasi,
    I'd like to learn more about your use of the Tmate 2. Could you email me so I can ask a few questions?  My email is n9emc@icloud.com
    Thank you

    If you can find one then the CMD Micro works very well and you have a whole load of programmable knobs and buttons.  I have also discovered that it will work in conjunction with the Maestro!

    I have a new unused CMD Micro that I no longer have any need for. I’m open to any offers. winston (dot) henry (at) bigpond (dot) com

    Since the CMD Micro is no longer being made, has anyone learned how to interface the 
    Behringer X-Touch Mini?  That is a current product and has tons of knobs and buttons
    for a very fair price.
