You guys are awful! I DO have a day job, you know! :)

Actually, I'm finding the RS-232 command set a bit lacking...but I'll look
into it. Perhaps I'll design it and let someone else build it (yeah
right!)...Gees, I can see what's coming now...another obsessive project!
BTW, the joystick interface is working as I expected...with four speeds,
the scope cycles through guide, center, move, and slew as you push the
stick further in any direction. Of course, it moves the same speed in both
axis, as you cannot move a "move" speed in the N/S direction and "center"
speed in the E/W direction...w/o some software pwm techniques which I'm
not sure will work. But, it does work. Kind of fun.
