An inexpensive solution is the FD ST1 kit. See my mini-review here in the archives and also

It uses the EasyComm interface.

What do I need to connect my G-5400B to my computer in order to automate satellite antenna tracking?
I'm current using Ham Radio Deluxe. I've heard of the LVB tracker, and the GS-232 but I wonder if there is a cheaper or easier solution, being that the software program now does a lot of the functions (or so I believe it does).
