I was hoping to use a FoxDelta ST2 to control this rotator but found that the feedback voltage is anything but linear. It seems that the FoxDelta controller uses the LVB Tracker version 0.7 firmware. I took a quick peek at the source code and it doesn't look to be too hard to add calibration points for say every 30 degrees. Perhaps one every 90 degrees would be sufficient. Of course that depends also a little on the fact if the modified code will fit in the 16F876.\n>>> \n>>> 73,\n>>> \n>>> --Alex KR1ST\n>>> \n>>> \n>>> \n>>> \n>>> -----------------------------------------------------------\n>>> \n>>> Sent via AMSAT-BB(a)amsat.org.
