There is a new driver for SatPC32 to support the new (cheaper) Labjack U3 USB rotor controller. For details about downloading and installing the driver, look at the bottom of DK1TB's "Downloads" page.

NLSA no longer sells the "piggyback" PCB that interfaces a Labjack USB controller to a Yaesu az/el rotor. But Erich Eichmann DK1TB reports that it's easy to build the interface on a perfboard. At the bottom of the Downloads page are links to schematic drawings of Labjack U3 and U12 Yaesu rotor interfaces. And a link to a photo of his homebrew U3 interface.
