A friend put me onto EDGEPORT USB to serial devices. Run 300-400 new. Ebay has them (take-outs I think) and I bought a 4 port one for 25 and an 8 port one for 35. Love them. Hardware has comm 1 and 2 and the Edgeport software configures to comm 5-8 or 5-12.
Using the 4 port one with Windows XP Pro to K3, PSKMETER, and TM-D710 right now. Works FB. The 8 port is for my second shack PC and will connect the remaining radios, TNC, rigblaster to my 746, and my other 2 meter rig. 73, de Jim KG0KP ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ron D'Eau Claire" <r...@cobi.biz> To: <elecraft@mailman.qth.net> Sent: Monday, March 30, 2009 6:54 PM Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 Serial Port > *If* the need is for a second serial port (that's not clear from the > thread), CommFront (www.commfront.com) makes a nice single USB to two > RS232 > port dongle that works FB for me.
