Flex-6000 Software

A list of known latest versions of Flex-6000 related software I am using, with links if known:

Last update is a partial update as of 23 October 2023

Where I’ve recently updated the old version I upgraded from is listed with the new version in the format “new version (old version, date).”

As I needed to do a list for myself to help me standardize across my various platforms and locations, I figured other operators might find the same list useful.

This list is limited to publicly available distributions THAT I HAVE BEEN USING and may be less than inclusive for limited use software projects or stuff I haven’t had a chance to try out.  I am NOT listing any Alpha software.

SmartSDR – version 3.5.9 *

SmartCAT – version 3.5.9 *

SmartDAX – version 3.5.9 *

SmartSDR for iOS – Latest * – download from the Apple App-Store

PGXL Utility – Latest *

Meinberg NTP Time Server – version ntp-4.2.8p15v2 – https://www.meinbergglobal.com/english/sw/ntp.htm#ntp_stable

WSJT-X – version 2.3.0 – https://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/k1jt/wsjtx.html

* Available by download from FlexRadio Systems, and it’s pretty likely I’m actually running an Alpha version or RC (release candidate) as part of the test team.  The actual Alpha version number isn’t going to be revealed, but I am also running the version listed. As a reminder SmartSDR for Windows installer also installs SmartCAT and SmartDAX.  SmartLink is a service that is accessed through SmartSDR and certain select programs.  Downloads from the FRS website http://www.flex-radio.com
