Ed,

Tnx for posting this.  I wish him luck.  Over recent years, the 
problems  the old company was having scared me away from  buying a rotor 
  control for my old Ham IV.

About a year and a half ago, Rob K6DQ (he of Hampod fame), suggested the 
Easy Rotor Control from Germany.  I know Jim KY2D had gotten one for his 
Ham IV.

I had picked up a Yaesu  G-800 for the hex last year, and last month 
finally got around to getting the ERC.   Fully assembeled and plug and 
play for the  G-800.   Very pleased with it.

Anyway I wish the new owner of Idiom  Press all the best  and maybe will 
see some new products on the market from them.

73, Steve KW3A
