    "content": "Another one to consider and I haven't seen it already listed, is the LabJack U12 along with its Piggyback.  The Piggyback schematic can be found at http://www.dk1tb.de/lj_piggyback.JPG.  The instructions for using the LabJack U12 are found under ?Hints (Rotor) Readme(Labjack.txt).  I think it cost me less than $20 in parts to build the Piggyback.  The Piggyback interfaces the LabJack U12 to the rotor control box; the U12 then interfaces with the computer via USB.  SatPC32 also shows the LabJack U3 but I am unfamiliar with the capabilities of it.\nLabJack U12 info can be found at https://labjack.com/products/u12The LabJack U3 info can be found at https://labjack.com/products/u3.  The U3 Piggyback schematic can be found at http://www.dk1tb.de/lj_piggyback_u3.JPG\n\nI have 2 of these U12s and both are solid.  My first Piggyback I bought with Nova a long time ago.  I build the second one so that I made sure I had spares since I loan my equipment out for schools to have an ARISS contact.\nHope this helps.\n73,Charlie Sufana AJ9NOne of the ARISS mentors\nIn a message dated 2019-03-07 07:39:46 Eastern Standard Time, [email protected] writes:\n\nBelow is a list of interfaces.
