// Polling Transceiver
//
//  Helper base  class that  encapsulates the emulation  of continuous
//  update and caching of a transceiver state.
//
// Collaborations
//
//  Implements the TransceiverBase post  action interface and provides
//  the abstract  poll() operation  for sub-classes to  implement. The
//  poll operation is invoked every poll_interval seconds.
//
// Responsibilities
//
//  Because some rig interfaces don't immediately update after a state
//  change request; this  class allows a rig a few  polls to stabilise
//  to the  requested state before  signalling the change.  This means
//  that  clients don't  see  intermediate states  that are  sometimes
//  inaccurate,  e.g. changing  the split  TX frequency  on Icom  rigs
//  requires a  VFO switch  and polls while  switched will  return the
//  wrong current frequency.
