Jim,

No personal experience, but M2 rotators are among those supported by SatPC32.

Hi Jim,

I use STL Tracker for tracking and controlling the M2 Rotators: http://www.stltracker.com/ It works with a few different versions of the M2 controller. It's free to download and use, but to save the configuration you need to purchase a serial number.

etc.

Any ideas on a tracker that talks that language?
