Try www.phidgets.com.
Ive been using a prototype of the 8x7seg displays for about 3 months now,
and
they work really well. The production units are just about ready, and are
really well priced. Chester also has a rotary encoder that you can use for
tuning them. Ive got a sample program on my website that will work for COM1

that connects to the sim and tune's in the radio.
Writting code to use them is very simple, I currently use Visual Basic and
the
FSUIPC sample code is a breese.
I have done parts of what your wanting to do already, and am happy to help
if
you need some. You can contact me privately for help if you want some help.
