[GreenKeys] HAL ST-8000A

[Howard Weeks]

I picked up a couple of the ST-8000As.  Look new but appear to be about 10
years old.  I checked the HAL site and they do have an operator's manual
and a tech manual.  Believe the Opr Man was 50 and the Tech Man was 100.

Guess I will spring for the Opr Man first and then, depending on what I find
and need,
go for the tech man.  From looking at the tech specs, looks like it has an
RS-232 output
along with Mil 188.  So should drive a computer directly (running the right
software).
Appears they have a Windows SW RTTY package also - for 100.

Be interesting to see how it compares to the Dovetron or Universal M-7000.

Thanks for the help.
