Very interesting I think. Please provide a link to the source code, thank you. I can't find it within the (translated here) link in your post.

Hello Johnny,
This looks intriguing. How is the interface to the rotor or rotor controller accomplished?

Thanks,

From the look of it, I’m assuming you need a GS232 rotator controller or K3NG controller. So either genuine Yaesu product for example or Arduino Mega2560 and relays.?

? I have the K3NG interface and a like this is always welcome.


? The links at the bottom seem to give away the interface.
