I had a station with one a while ago.  As long as it's receiving the RWT's
and RMT's, you should be OK for the test.  Burk stopped support on them a
couple years after they made them as one of the major chips went out of
production suddenly.

I don't see that as an issue for the EAN test.  But of course, it will
need to be swapped out for the CAP system.
