[amsat-bb] Re: Which rotor control to use?

[Eric Knaps, ON4HF]

Hello George,

Thanks for the reply.
Maybe I can go for FOD-track. I even have the pcb that was given to me 
years ago and it's more fun if I build it myself.
But can I just connect it and let it communicate with HamRadio Deluxe or 
do I need to run another program?

73,
ON4HF.
