Saw one advertised on eBay.. caught my attention.
Has anyone used one of these before?

I used their Basic controler and it works well enough. Not many options but I really didn't need much other than hang-time and CW ID. It's nice it has a control rx input too. It's simple and easy to mod if needed. It does the job and the price isn't bad.

Thanks, but no thanks, Will. Your modules don't do CW-ID, among other things.
Thus, I'd have to buy a CW-ID aftermarket board [~$60.] And what kind of fun is that, when I'm pricing out a repeater controller that costs $80 AND does CW-ID?

Here's what I used the ICS for:

It sold for $400 B-I-N on greedbay to a local guy (didn't have to ship!)
