Yes, I am aware that there are dozens of programs that will
control the Alfa Spid. There are also many programs that
only speak DCU-1. Those programs will NOT control the Alfa
Spid AFAIK. I want to use N8LP's "LP Rotor" because it gives me
real time rotor position AND it links to TRX-Manager. LP
rotor only speaks DCU-1 and only at 4800 baud. Therefore,
it will not work with the Spid, AFAIK. DXView does not
link with TRX-Manager. I am using TRX-Manager to control
a remote HF base.
The PH command MUST be executed from the front panel of
the Alfa Spid controller from the setup menu. It is not
an RS-232 command. (BTW, the PH command is documented
in a general way, but the fact that it must be set at
179 for north centering is not mentioned).
