Nice work!


I do have a defective non-locking FE-5680A, but the problems it has 
(incorrect serial command replies, way off DDS tuning values, and 
absence of 10 MHz once the microcontroller boots up) makes me think 
there's a problem with the CPLD or even the firmware in flash.  I 
don't think it would be a good candidate for a firmware dump.
