It cost a few bucks to get, but I know what these beasties can do... What beastie? Oh, sorry... an Ancot DCS-216FT standalone SCSI bus analyzer, in pretty darn good shape. Snagged it from Ebay for $250. Considering that I've rarely seen them going for less than a grand, I think I got a decent enough deal. One of the tech support guys at Ancot was kind enough to send me the user's manual. Now, if I can just get a differential adapter as well... Heck, maybe I can build one... we'll see. 73 de KC7GR -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Bruce Lane, Owner & Head Hardware Heavy, Blue Feather Technologies -- http://www.bluefeathertech.com ARS KC7GR (Formerly WD6EOS) since 12-77 -- kyrrin(a)bluefeathertech.com "I'll get a life when someone demonstrates that it would be superior to what I have now..."
