I have ordered a new 8-foot-long BNC-BNC from ABR for SmartSignal from PGXL to the Flex 8600.

The question I have, which RX ports is the best connections RX 1 to the PGXL ?

My setup is 8600 to PGXL to TGXL to AGXL with 5 antennas hooked to AGXL

    At this time, SmartSignal will not monitor the RF from the PGXL. That is in a future version.

    However, when we do release it, you will be able to use the RX or XVT ports and specify which one.

    APD does work on Flex 8000 series radios. What it does not do (yet) is take the output from an external amplifier and feed a small sample back to the radio.

    SmartSignal, today, only works on the 100 watts (or less) generated in the radio.

    In case you missed the FAQ for APD, you can find it here:

    Ok thanks Mike. I am confident that will be resolved as well.

    I had to upgrade the TGXL for integration.

    WAITING ON 4O3A to update the PGXL software?
