[TenTec] History repeats itself . . .

[HamOperator]

I understand Flex went proprietary with software development because 
previous versions sucked, and hams did not step up to improve it under 
the open license arrangement.    More often hams borrowed and adapted it 
to run other SDRs, instead.  One reliable source tells me Flex will 
spend as much as half its R&D time improving the software, and I think 
that is the key to its future success.
