Yes, I had stumbled across that one. It does sound capable enough,
though if I'd need to do the full DIY including ordering a PCB and
all, it would be better if I coughed up the cash for a low-end
Xeltek. Good grief, I just noticed that Xeltek has reduced their
SuperPro-Z to $195. Hmmmm....

But thanks for your suggestions, at any rate.
