One of the most common rotor control boards is the Kansas City Tracker/Tuner
(KCT/T) extensively used for satellite tracking applications. It is sold by
Amsat-US since about 15 years.
Link to the KCT/T: http://www.llgrace.com/
The KCT/T is installed in an ISA slot in the computer. It does not interface
via the COM-ports but requires a special driver, different versions are
available on the Internet. Several programs interface the KCT/T through DDE
commands.
Now to my question: How can I use this rotor control with DX4WIN?
Is there a way to program DX4WIN to send rotor control commands via DDE
interface. This link decribes that for several other programs.

Look up the ServerKCT link on that page.
Any help appreciated!
