[volt-nuts] Hello and relay card for HP 3457a

[Jerry Hancock]

I think the card that goes in the dedicated scanner made by HP that looks like the 3457, can’t remember the number but I have one, also fits.  I think I paid less than $35 for my scanner shipped.  I also think the display in that unit fits the 3457 and the 3478 but never took a hard look at it.
