I have an Sbus expansion chassis Sbus card, but don't know if it works
because I don't have the chassis or cable. Anyone can have it for the cost
of postage.

Isn't there some thing that allows you to add sbus cards in an external
enclosure?  Sounds kinda strange, but just about everything sbus is a little
strange.
