Re: Modular uBitx - "Ex: Harmonics"

No, I didn't mean to suggest that CAT be used for internal control. I was just pointing out that control is possible with messaging. There are existing bus protocols (e.g., SPI, I2C, CAN) and many ?C's provide for them, but I don't know enough to judge whether they would be useful here.

Jack,
That was not a single processor thing.? The idea was a smart front panel I remember one really slick one. ;)
The Cat is external to a PC or tablet and not an internal bus for housekeeping and control.
That main user interface and control would drive a serial bus to internal mpus to do things like select filters,
measure SWR, aka dumb slow stuff.? ?The logic is a few wires simple bus protocol and simpler interconnect
as two wires (and ground) are easy to route.? I've done this in distributed control and sense systems.
