    Don - I have thought about that although DDE is not a very good way to do
    it. Its very unreliable
    I was thinking of providing Az and EL to a serial port or to a USB port,
    user selectable, and format it in some 'standard' format. Is there any such
    animal for steering antennas? I once knew of something like a Kansas City
    Tracker protocol or something like it.

    Anyone else have a use for Az/El output form the SETI Clock and if so what
    format, what port, how often etc.

    Regards........... Jim
