Seems it may work. I have 2 Microham boxes and they work fine. I am just
trying to find out whether one can reduce the box and cable count especially
when oprtating portable.

Many new laptops do not have serial ports. Are there any USB/serial adapters
that are reliable for CW?

No question about that; Joe explained a few problems that I had in no
time...
