DD8SF on Nostr: Is there any wide-spread communication bus used for connecting ham radio station ...
Is there any wide-spread communication bus used for connecting ham radio station equipment?
I want to improve my setup to tune my magnetic loop antenna.
Currently I communicate with my SWR-meter and the antenna's capacitor via RS-232, which was fine for prototyping purposes but I want everything on one bus. Maybe something RS-485 based?
