That one sentence kicked off a lot of reading! After poring over the
archives and looking all over the net, I'm down to the R-75, the PCR-1000
and Ten-Tec's RX-320 as fitting my price-range and having the features I
think I'm most interested in. And I found Linux controllers for all of
them.
What Linux are you running? I have a debian-based system, running tk75 for
the R-75.
http://www.parnass.org/tk75/ , though I am using computer control less often
these days. I think I want to run the receiver from my palm pilot (!)
From the archives I can see there's been a lot of debate about all three
receivers, so I'll take my time and research more before making a
decision. Thanks for leading me in a good direction!
I've found that some features and options and some things listed as deficits
with receivers are simply a matter of getting used to. Good luck with your
shopping.
