[Premium-Rx] better receivers.

[George Georgevits]

Hi John,

I have written software to control my HP8753 network analyser via the GPIB
interface, with good success. My software is also DOS based. It drives an HP
82335 ISA bus card in the PC. These cards are relatively easy to get on
ePay, and are not too expensive (USD 40.00 typical). I am sure it would not
be too difficult to write something to control a receiver (it would have to
be easier than a network analyser!). I have a WJ8716 with a GPIB interface,
but I have not yet got around to trying to locate the GP-IB command
documentation. Do you happen to have the command set for the WJ or would you
happen to know of a source?

I also have a Racal RA6790/GM, but unfortunately it does not have a computer
interface. I wonder whether a GPIB card exists for the Racal?

Also, do you really think there is a market for such software? It would be
great to get a few $'s back on my investment in the Rx.
