There's not a whole lot of talk about the old Federal SiraTrol equipment, but I want to shed some light on the DTMF variant, because these units had some very cool tricks up their sleeves. A lot of this information can be read in the manual for it, which I recommend brushing through if you have some...

Oh interesting, that's actually an add-on for FSK two way functionality with newer control systems. Glad you have it though. Was worried that you picked up a controller with no CPU.

this is the fc controller has two inverted vga ports First things first, did you intentionally remove the CPU? That board does not have a CPU in it, and well that means it's a paperweight if you don't have it. If you do have it, then great! We can move on. That's a first generation FC, so all you n...

Nice work Jason. I was getting a bit worried about the situation that unfolded the other day. Welcome to the team guys!

If there is a video that is already common on Youtube or is your video, let me know and I can take it down. Honestly I feel like you should upload copies of them just for the sake of having a backup.

Awesome catch dude!

My friend 4j25 spotted these either last year or the year before last. I've had them on my maps for a while.
