David,

Thanks for the quick reply.  Your web page is very informative.  If I
understand correctly, you got the barewire version and made your own
DB-9 connector for it.  Do you suppose that the DB-9 version (which
comes with a cigarette lighter adapter) is less precise/more
jittery/etc.?

Also, do you have the 1 Hz or 5 Hz version?  I see that the 5-Hz
versions are at least twice as expensive as 1 Hz.
