Happy Birthday to me: I now own a G-5500 and it's controller! Now... I need the computer interface.
As opposed to paying the $ for an authentic GS-232B, I see the following item come up a lot in my EBay feed, and I'm left to wonder if it is worth trying: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Rotator-Control-Interface-Board-with-Cable-USB-232B...
That, or I spring for a Green Heron, right?
What do you think? What other options should I consider?
