Even T\/R control is provided over the Ethernet connection to further minimize wiring. In addition, all amplifier status reporting including power levels, fault conditions and resets are reported to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cqdx.ru\/ham\/new-equipment\/flexradio-systems-sdr-flex-6000-hf50mhz-transceiver-in-details\/\">FLEX-6000<\/a> Signature Series transceiver using the SmartSDR API.
