[Test-Equipment] HP 8620 help

[John Miles]

Thanks for the confirmation on the physical connector type, guys.  I'll go
ahead and buy some SCSI interconnects.

I am hoping to come up with a PC interface to these units, complete with
phase-locking.  Going to need access to the back connector to pretune the
plugin and detect what band is selected.
