> operational. I cannot guarantee the control application will run on
> anything past Windows XP reliably although I have run it on my Windows 7
> machine through a USB to serial converter and was able to change receiver
> settings.
> The receiver can also be controlled by other current commercial control
> software such as PCALE for ALE experimentation, Spectrum Sentry, DXtra and
> probably others.
> The receiver is in excellent physical and electrical condition. Pictures
