EQ-6 hand paddle (standard) wanted

[bojan]

The processor in my EQ-6 hand paddle decided to die on me (and EQ-6 doesn't work without it). So I need another one (the whole paddle or just processor).
Thank you in advance !

You can use EQMOD and a laptop until you find a new paddle if you want.

Hi James,
Thanks for a suggestion.. I will have a look
However, I think it won't work... the problem is, I have a standard EQ-6 with Darren's mod (Atmel Mega 162 processor instead of whatever was originally inside), and that one is also suspicious - but I can't confirm it without hand paddle (and that one is definitely kaput, there is nothing on a serial output, while other things apparently work (LED's).
The hand paddle uses serial port for commands (not RS232) so I can't connect laptop directly... and I am not sure the protocol will be adequate..

Bojan I have the hand paddle from my HEQ5. It says HEQ5/EQ6 Motor Drive on the front. You are welcome to it gratis if it is useful to you.
