And point 1 is now addressed since in the Flex 6000 series most of the function is now down in the radio, causing SmartSDR to use much less CPU.

I had decided FLEX radios were not for me, these deal breakers:

1. PowerSDR crippled my computer, soaked it of processing power.
2. MOUSE + Computer screen = terrible interface compounded by screen real 
estate and Window Focus problems.
3. CW-QSK latency problems
4. I like analog S-meters, period.

Well N4PY's comments had me investigate Tmate2  and I found this touch pad 
software that seems to address issues 2, and 4.

It is possible that issue 3 has been resolved in the new Flex 6300 from what I 
have seen on utube (Ellington). I will want to see that for myself.

Little by little SDR seems to be more of an option at this QTH...
