Hi Albert
Although I can hear some genuine signals on MF it is really bad with a large antenna. LF likewise is also vy poor.
More add on gadgets to make to overcome this problem and then I wonder what it will sound like

MF/LF
First observations indicate that the radio is a good performer on HF with appropriate antennas but on MF/LF with large antenna arrays there is cross modulation and overload. This could be overcome with a stepped ext attenuator or using smaller antennas on receive.
Some other radios that I havd tried are useless on LF/MF with small antennas but very good with large antenna arrays.

Mal,

FlexRadio info, valid for Flex 5K and 3 K (Flex 1k5 below 500 kHz) 

Note 7: Customer provided pre-selector or appropriate low pass filter(s) required to eliminate images when used below 1.8 MHz

For a good performance of your SDR you need a band pass filter for 136 kHz and 500 kHz, an attenuator is not enough to get rid of all the ghost signals that show up on and around these bands.
