RE: [amsat-bb] Rotor / Radio Control

["Cordill,Jim" <JCORDILL@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Gerald,
  I have one, and have good news/bad news!  The good news is it seems to be
a well made unit, the bad news, at least for me, is the firmware is broken.
At least as for its "EasyComm" support.  I purchased the unit last year to
use with Wisp to control my KW TS-790 and Yeasu G5400b rotor for pacsat use.
It does work using it's native command set.  Last year, just before I got
mine,
the firmware was upgraded to support a new Icom radio and it broke the
"Easycomm"
stuff, John has been working on a fix, but has not yet had time to test it,
so I
am still waiting.  It's the only serial control of radio's and rotors that I
know
of, perfect for laptop's like mine.

Anyone have any information on an "Endeavor AutoTracker Rotor Controller?"

Also, any advise regarding rotor/radio tuning control specifically for an
IC-820H will be appreciated.
