Flex Insider
Some time ago there was mention of a new Flex Insider coming out soon.
That has been several months ago. I hope that hasn't been forgotten. A lot of us would really like to know what the overall status of SmartSDR. And what,if any, future updates and/or upgrades are coming or at least planned. There are several bugs and features that really need attention. Some of the issues in current features have existed ever since the introduction of SmartSDR and the 6000 Series radios. I, and others have harped on those issues for years. And yet, nothing ever seems to be done about addressing those issues. Obviously, in this case, the squeaking wheel doesn't get any grease. And it's becoming obvious that it never will. Workarounds work, but shouldn't have to be needed for basic features.
How about some real communication with your customers FRS? But please don't mention things you don't really plan to address and make right.

We are working on an Insider right now.
It is surprisingly long to publish so many departments agree and so many moving targets.

Looking forward to seeing it Mike. Thanks for replying.

I receive the latest Insider today 8/8/22. Many thanks for the update. I was starting to wonder what the heck was going on. The last Insider / News Update I received was back in December 2020.

Mike, thank you. I have been a subscriber to the Flex Insider ever since it was introduced. But, for some reason, ( one I outlined in my email to you) I haven't received the latest Insider. I did go ahead and sign up again on the Flex Insider page on the Flex Radio website. Hopefully, it will stick.

Hello Mike, I signed up again for the Insider only to receive the response that my email was already registered, which I knew was the case. Would you mind following this up for me.
Many thanks,

Another member sent me a copy. If someone is thinking about buying new hardware, this Insider outlines the difficulty FRS, just like many manufacturers, is experiencing sourcing components to continue building their line of Amateur radio products. That is understandable. What isn't understandable, is no clear communication about the future of SmartSDR. No mention of improvements to existing functionality ( basic features) or possible future full versions of SmartSDR.
It would appear to me that other than addressing issues that effect the entire customer base, and creates a lot of complaints, Flex Radio has no real intention of improving upon the current version of SmartSDR. Much less planning to introduce a new, full version upgrade, with new, useful features.

If you didn't receive your Insider, please send me an email with your email address
In checking some of the logs, some of you may have marked us as spam once (that is tracked and reported to our emailing tools) and others, your email is soft bouncing. Unfortunately, I can't tell exactly why.
Others have not actually opt'd in or subscribed for notifications, at least from the data I have to review.
Lastly, make sure it isn't sitting in your spam folder.
It will be posted on the website shortly. We are just waiting for the company that manages the website to do it. https://www.flexradio.com/insider/

Thanks Mike. I re-registered and got a confirmation email. But, still no official Insider from Flex Radio itself. I did however, receive a copy from another Flex user. So that base was covered. I have checked my Spam folder both online with my email provider and in Outlook on my pc. Neither one shows an email from FRS. I appreciate your help.
