Does anyone have or know where to get PDF's or documentation on this device?? I'm looking for it's capabilities and the website isn't very descriptive. Mainly, what I am looking for is:

Can one of these handle selectable off / one way / two way link or can it only do one way?

If I am reading this right, it would appear you can connect THREE radios to it (master, a, b)?

Matt,

I have e-mailed you concerning a manual for this controller.
I have the Service Manual in PDF.

FYI: Our local ham club is getting an Arcom RC-210 that seems to do what you describe:
<www.AH6LE.net/arcom>
It is not too expensive and extremely flexible. You can write your own commands apparently. Firmware is in flash so you can upgrade via the net.
I will post our experiences in a month or two.

Thank you to those who have supplied me with the Nida documentiation!!

Dal, I love this Arcom-210 even more than the Nida!! It seems a lot more feature packed for what I am looking for. I really want the ability to control one way or two way links which the Nida one will not do. All the programmable inputs and outputs are most excellent. The voice thing is pretty cool too. There is no mistaking what mode your in when it just says it out loud.

Matt, hope it works out for you. There are some innovative amateur products out there. (Next we will recruit you into the ham ranks).
Give Ken a call at Arcom, he seems to be willing to give whatever support you need. We are looking forward to trying out the RC-210 in a week or two. I can see some commercial applications for it also.
