I have just bought an 8600 with a Maestro and am looking at a steep learning curve. Are there any Flex owners near me who would be prepared to advise me?

    not near you but opening up tickets is usually not a problem; never feel **** re any question ; i have an 6600M and a maestro that i got in 2020 and still do not know all of the buttons; only problem was the 6600M was dead out of the box and had to be sent back FOUR TIMES; and my new 8600M is being sent back due to loud fan noise; but when the radios work they are great; keep asking and the manuals are very good; good luck

    Hi Charles, there are a bunch of great YouTube videos on Flex operation. Mike, VA3MW and Ken, NM9P both have some that are very informative.

    Arnold/Len,

    Thanks for your words of encouragement here. So far, my 8600 seems to be behaving itself and I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
