FWIW, I did find I can use a virtual port
with it # "10" If I assign any other
numerical value it will not work. Won't
work with Win 7, I tried for hours but
with this computer & Win 10, WSJT-X works
on virtual port 10. All the other software
works on whatever virtual port I tell it
to work on. WSJT-X is not yet user
friendly, I suspect it will become more so
over time.
Gary,
In Windows, all COM-Port notation above COM9 must be written in UNC-Format.
See:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/115831/howto-specify-serial-ports-larger-than-com9
A good software takes care of it by itself, no need for the user to
know about it.
So, COM9 is internally "COM9" but COM10 is "\\.\COM10".
Don't know if the SW will accept that. If not you can forward this info
to the developers.
