    The old school, 50s style intro music is great.

    I got to speak briefly with the Flex crowd at Dayton. If I can quit buying antiques I'm going to consider a 6000 or two some time in the relatively near future.

    Yeah ...... I have to agree with everyone else ..... it's a well done video Burt ... the Flex radio system is simply, an amazing piece of technology!
    Why,driving into a brick wall at 60 miles per hour, would I expect it not to hurt!

    Hey Burt! Thank you, teacher! Your videos are improving...

    As a very happy owner of a Flex 3000, I am blown away. The 6500 seems "just right".
    And at that price point, if I sell some of my solid state antiques... I could trade up.

    Flex is to be commended. Ten Tec and Elecraft have some catching up to do.
    Hope they do, because competition is great at this level. It's good for radio!

    I bet the government spooks are drooling over this rig design...
