Flex users are finding that you pretty much need a dedicated computer whose 
job is to run the flex... period.  While the software does seem largely 
inaccessible, some have had success using DJ control units to get to various 
functions.  These are devices with knobs you can turn and re-assign the 
functions to control parameters on the radio instead of a DJ console.  I've 
never done it but don't see why it wouldn't work.  Lou  WA3MIX
