Hi Bill, I am using the LVB tracker with the G-5500 and controlling them with the SatPC-32 software. My experience with this system has been very pleasing, straight forward and plug & play. The documentation for the LVB is excellent and the same is true for SatPC-32. Setting the calibration between the LVB and the G-5500 was a snap, with very easy to follow instructions. Supporting AMSAT by purchasing the LVB is icing on the cake. My 2 cents.
