The PCI and USB HPib interfaces I've seen are terribly expensive.
Wpuld it be possible to fake an interface with a parallel port and bit
banging?
Possibly an Arduino?

You can troll sci.engineering.design for users of the prologix usb and ethernet

adadpter.
My recollection is cardbus is 32bits and pcmcia is 16bits. My it shouldn't be
an issue unless you try to run DOS. The only reason I mention this is I can't
run some serial cards via my cardbus slot on my notebook due to the lack of a
driver.

Jim,
I am open to all the suggestions.
Just looked at the Prologix site, The usb interface is interesting, also
the Ethernet device looks cool.
I have a wireless network here with about 10 devices on it.
Would I be able to monitor, say the 5370,b with TL running and maybe my
HP3586 Selective level meter from a wireless laptop
Using the proper software? This sounds like an interesting way to go.
I have to read up on the prologix more.

Hello,
I am looking for a PCI-GPIB card to use in a machine running windows XP.
After looking on Ebay there are many different options at many
different prices.
I am not sure which would be compatible with my set up.
Currently I have a ACER Laptop, with a NI PCMCIA GPIB card and I was
able to locate the drivers to make it run with the TimeLab, the HP
5730B,
I have a Dell dimension 2400 desktop, which runs other Ham radio software,
like weak signal DSP, some Seismograph, Dataq data logging and others.
This computer has a spare PCI slot and I would like to move the HPIB
capabilities into this machine, so I only need to run 1 computer.
I've been moving to USB and Ethernet. That whole ISA/EISA/PCI bus thing is
such a pain.
Given USB/Ethernet, Prologix has nice GPIB interfaces. NI and Agilent also
have them. brand new, the latter cost more, but perhaps they show up used
at lower prices.
