Hi Dave et al 

Another advantage with the LVB tracker is all the $$$ goes to AMSAT (satellites ain't cheap).  Good support can be had from Gould and Scott (he builds them), as well as many satisfied users.

I'm using the ERC-R, it's a little cheaper than the LVB Tracker, and I had 
it at my door in a week.

a few options. Do I need the Yaesu 232 interface box or will a generic box 
do the job. If a generic box will work, which are the best for satellite 
work with PCSat32?
