Hi there Glenn,
Unfortunately, there has not been any work on this, to have it updated to support the many newer features and better performing modes of FreeDV.
The challenging part, is that while we have some really great FreeDV programmers, they are not as familiar with the Flex radio API side, to have this completely integrated.
We are all hoping that there will be a solution for this someday in the future.
All the best,
Walter/K5WH

Hi Glenn,
There has been a lot of “thought” over the years to update the Flex but I believe it has always ended there. Need a programmer who has a Flex 6000 series Radio and a strong interest in FreeDV. Flex will answer questions regarding their API. See https://www.flexradio.com/api

I know there is a version of FreeDV for installing as an additional mode in the Flex Radio software. I am curious if there has been any work or thought put into updating it, if anyone here has knowledge of it.

The Flex installable version of FreeDV is really old, only one mode option not sure which it is. I have had allot of issues with it. The output from radio is also VERY low, like a couple watts when set for full power output. I understand digital modes do not require the same amount of power output but 30-40 watts output on a digital signal when set to full power, 100watts, is very reasonable. That is about what more demanding digital modes are set for.

Bob, I don’t recall what version of API was used but it could not have been far from v1.x. Then Graham Haddock used the API to show us how it could be used to provide FreeDV for the Flex. Yes, it had a couple issues (USB only for all bands, for one) but it was usable and the DV community appreciated the effort Graham took to provide FreeDV.

Hi Mel
I would love see the new FreeDV back on Flex I used the 1600 version some years ago and had some good contacts on 20 Metres. I use FreeDV all the time here with my Flex 6500 as the TX/RX and have a sked on 80 Metres every day and it has been going for quite a few years now.. I keep up to date with the new verions of FreeDV but mainly on 700D.
I hope you have success with a new Flex version.

I have used the 1500 on DV. Used an Acom 2000A with it for 200w out. All worked fine with Power SDR software and virtual cables.

Gary,
We are on FreeDV every day of the week, and all day long.
Always listening in the background, as well as a couple others.
Unfortunately, the propagation is not near as active as we are, so the path may not be there all the time.
With the latest versions of FreeDV, it will auto mode detect, so no matter what mode you come up on, we will hear you just fine.
The QSO finder is the best way to find the active users, so don’t give up, just jump in and give it a call at different times.
If that doesn’t stir anything up, jump on DMR on 98006, the Amsat talk group, and get someone’s attention.
Also, ping me if you want the link to my Zoom channel, where we have a countless number of people from around the planet online all day and night, where we bounce between satellites, HF, FreeDV, and about every other digital mode as well.
All the best, see you soon,
Walter/K5WH
