Two words: Buy it. Yes, it uses the DCU-1 protocol. I'm using it on a Hy-Gain T2X and love it. I bought the pre-wired version because, with two toddlers, a working wife and my own job, kit-building, even something as easy as this, is not an option. Expect to spend about a hour installing it. Mine worked fine out of the box. The only problem I had was that the 9 pin serial connector wiring was a mirror image of what it should have been. I fixed that and now the computer control with DXBase works like a charm, too. I have to admit that it's way cool to enter a call into DXBase, press the appropriate "button" and have the rotator automagically go to the proper heading.
