[time-nuts] 82357B GPIB USB from China

[Volker Esper]

I bought one about a year ago but couldn't get it running under Win XP.
There were a dozen well-meant advices on the forums that told me to read
the firmware and flash the beast with a "better" one. However, I
couldn't keep my nerve, so I purchased a Prologix adapter - which worked
instantly.
