Hi
I'm not familiar with this radio and interested in purchasing. I currently have a flex-6300 in which I can see 7mhz at a clip if I need to. How much spectrum can the Anan 7000 see at once? And how well does it network, like if I'm in another room can I use my laptop to log onto radio?
Thank you

Re: How much spectrum
You can set it up so that 1.536 MHz is viewable on both RX1 and RX2 for a total of a little over 3MHz.
This is sufficient to effectively monitor two entire bands with the exception of 6 and 10M.
Networking needs to be hardwired, the radio will not run well over Wi-Fi (it is possible, but you have to do things like lower bandwidth to 48KHz, etc.)
Assuming you have a hardwired connection, you can run the radio perfectly from anywhere. My hardware is all in the basement, I operate from my second floor office/studio. You can use USB audio devices, you can even provision a key or paddle on a serial port of the laptop.
If you are very interested in remote operations over the internet this is probably not the radio for you. Flex is by far the best at this.
These are very, very complex and capable radios. They are not point and shoot like a Flex. But the skull sweat is worth it if you want:
- the cleanest spectrum on the airwaves via the built-in PureSignal linearization
- best sounding audio on the airwaves compliments of PureSignal and the equivalent of a rack-load of audio processing built into the software (and the ONLY place you can get look-ahead VOX processing)
- and the best noise reduction available in or out of ham radio (NR2 mode, which uses spectral estimation).

Re: How much spectrum
Okay thank you, love the reviews and excited about the radio. Going to consider between 7000 and 8000.

Re: How much spectrum
Actually except from the detailed pan-adapter that wu2o described you can see also 0 to 60mhz in a extra window.
Re: How much spectrum
Yes, but that feature is still pretty much alpha status and not of any substantial use, which is why I did not mention it.
Re: How much spectrum
One more question how about the tun button when I tune my amp, which is an ameriton al-82 Ineed different levels of tun power till I reach max power. Can I adjust the tun power output from the controls in the gui.

Re: How much spectrum
Yes. There are multiple options for this.
Re: How much spectrum
Thanks for your response. I ordered mine today settled on 7000.
