I've moved this over to the hpsdr list, as my question is not really FLEX-related.

I have the 1W SDR1000, and a homebrew external amp for when I operate HF. I can hang an ADC onto the power sensor, but what type of interface would I need? Does it go into the DB25 on Ozy, or directly into the PC? I've looked for the 100W amplifier schematic, but I don't find anything that seems helpful. I didn't realise that such functionality was being considered, and was expecting to have to do it myself one day. However, since I've never written any FPGA code it would be quite a stiff climb. I certainly want to get to where the only connection between the rigs and the PC is through AJO via a USB port.
