HP had a program called NOMAS (Not Manufacturer Supported) where they did release the source code to some of their calculator products (mainly the HP41 family) and possibly others.  There are many great HP41 (and other calculators) emulations out there because of it. I really wish they'd do it for the HP16500 logic analyzers...  ---------------------------------------- >With all this... I still want the source thought.

I would not mind having the HP5372A software, as there is room for improvements in it. When doing long measurements it would nice to see some form of indication of time left or so. For similar measurements it would be nice with an incremental display, which is feasable for some configs as not all data is needed unless you need to calculate a frequency estimate. Cheers, Magnus
