[amsat-bb] Channel Master 9521A Rotator interface

[Robert]

David,

You might check out my web page at:

http://k3rrr.com/cheap-computer-controlled-tv-rotor-for-amsat-satellites-and-includes-free-satellite-tracking-with-pstrotator-and-the-usb-uirt/

for a way to use a $65 for a  Jon Rhees USB-UIRT USB Universal Infrared 
Receiver and Transmitter to work with PstRotator for complete rotator 
control for working the satellites.

The great thing is that the USB – UIRT is totally plug-and-play once you 
download the drivers from the USB – UIRT website. There is no 
programming or software involved with the gizmo.

My web page has the link to the gizmo...and shows how to set up 
PstRotator to work with it.

This worked flawlessly for me for the 11-12 months that I used it before 
upgrading to the M2 LEO PACK antennas and the Yaesu G-5500 az el rotator.

Since you already have the Channel Master 9521A Rotator, all you should 
need is the USB-UIRT for about $65...sometimes, though rarely, they do 
show up on eBay...you also need PstRotator for about $21 if you don't 
already have this GREAT software package.

73,

Robert
