I put together a remote control program for the R-2368's (I think the 590A's
will work too) for Windows. It's still in the early stages of development
and I make no guarantees about it. I'll have to make a few minor tweaks if
there is any interest to make it available.

I have the basic control and status done but still have a bit more to do for
memory programming and such. I do have a feature where in Memory mode it
will display Alpha text from a lookup file to identify the memory.

You'll need to have a A14 board with rev E or F and a U5 of 208C or above
(mine had 208N). And you'll have to make up a RS-232 adapter for the back of
the receiver.

The software will work on Win 95, 98, ME and 2000. Sorry it will not work on
XP as I don't have the updated compiler (yet). It's developed under National
Instruments LabView. Although the .exe is about 500K it requires the install
of LabViews Run-Time engine (it's free too and I can compile that into the
setup.exe). But any updates there after to the R-2368 program will just
require the replacement of the smaller R-2368.exe. The Run-Time install is
about 8MB.

I'm only making this offer to the Premium-RX group.

Let me know what sort of interest there is out there.
