I'm looking for a small servo controller that can run either 5 or 10
servos. I'd prefer something I can program, and also attach RC to.
I can build it if I have to, but I'm running out of time. If anyone can
suggest something prebuilt within a decent price range I might just buy
it.
Then again it's not THAT hard to make a PIC/AVR/ARM run servos....
ttyl,

The SSC32 might help, but its not exactly what you describe:

Parallax has a couple of nice ones, too.=20
I have the USB version: =
http://www.parallax.com/detail.asp?product_id=3D28823 Here's the serial version: =
http://www.parallax.com/detail.asp?product_id=3D28023 Each one is about $40 .
Depending on what you mean by "program" they offer their own PSC =
software download, and RoboRealm supports them. That software runs on a =
PC.
There is also the RoboWare software for the SSC II : =

Also, the Oopic has a specific object for servo control. You might want =
to check it out: http://www.oopic.com/
Good luck !

FISA is yet another dagger shredding the U.S. Constitution.

: "Government surveillance, terrorism and the U.S. Constitution"

:
: The internal Justice Department FISA watchdog was Mary Lawton: it took
: her two years before saying the investigations into CISPES & Co should

:
: On the day after Thanksgiving in 1993, not quite a month after Mary Lawton
: died, Richard Scruggs decided it was time to go through her office on the
: sixth floor of Main Justice.
:
: The deeper Scruggs got into the FISA files, the more uneasy he grew.
:
: Reading the FISA applications in Lawton's files, Scruggs began finding
: errors. The volume of FISA cases was so heavy that the lawyers could spend
: only so much time on each one.
:
: "The review process to prevent factual and legal errors was virtually
: nonexistent," Scruggs recalled.
:
: In high school, Mary Lawton had won a debate about the meaning of the

Nor was it an aberration: the 1980s joined the 1960s and 1970s with yet
another massive use of this Orwellian technology for political purposes.
And these are when they were caught.
It's currently used for the "Drug War", a highly political endeavor.
Of course, once CISPES was designated as a terrorist organization...

Each station in the network - not just the satellite stations - has Dictionary
computers that report to the ECHELON system
P37
United States spy satellites, designed to intercept communications from orbit
above the earth, are also likely to be connected into the ECHELON system.
These satellites either move in orbits that criss-cross the earth or, like
the Intelsats, sit above the Equator in geostationary orbit.
They have antennae that can scoop up very large quantities of radio
communications from the areas below.
A final element of the ECHELON system are facilities that tap directly into
land-based telecommunications systems, completing a near total coverage of
the world's communications.
The microwave networks are made up of chains of microwave towers relaying
messages from hilltop to hilltop (always within line of sight) across the
countryside. These networks shunt large quantities of communications across
a country. Intercepting them gives access to international underseas
communications (once they surface) and to international communication trunk
lines across continents.
They are also an obvious target for large-scale interception of domestic
communications. Of course, when the microwave route is across one of the
UKUSA countries' territory it is much easier to arrange
