Roll your own with this project:

If the TIC uses a pot for direction, it should be an easy
implementation.

I am looking for an economical way to control TIC rings from the PC.
The goal is to get the control boxes off of the operating desk.

I really like the ERC offered by the guys at Vibroplex, but I don't see TIC
compatibility listed.
Controlling rotators is not complicated...surely there is some cross
compatibility with something?

RT-21's are nice, but outside of my price range.
I don't see the EA4TX boxes having TIC compatibility also, but it is
possible they do.  Cheaper than RT-21's at least.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
