    Are you using an external modems connected to the line input of the Flex? There is a bug where it is impossible to drive the Input level above about -10 dB which results on very low output power.

    I found that even though I had a smart sdr window the smartsdr connection window said smartsdr was not connected. I clicked connect a few times and it finally connected. Now when I try to connect with winlink expres when it transmits the smart sdr display just reduces the display by about 20 db when transmit is supposed to be occuring. there is no display of a signal being transmitted.
