        Mike,


        Have you considered using ZL2AMD's Uni-Trac 2000? 

Uni-Trac 2000 will automatically tune your ICOM radio to follow the Doppler
frequency changes.      

Uni-Trac 2000 will also steer your antennas via the Yaesu (or other)
antenna steering control box.

Uni-Trac 2000 also provides 2 independant programmable lines for
switching (polarisation?) relays etc.

Uni-Trac 2000 needs only one parallel port (LPT-1 or LPT-2) to do all of this.

Uni-Trac 2000 is 100% compatible with NOVA, Wisp and other tracking programs.

Uni-Trac 2000 is available from Spectrum International in Concord, Mass.
