[1000mp] *** FT1000MP Rig Control via USB/Serial Adapter ***

[Dave]

Yes. I use as VS-com 8-port adaptor with my Mark V and KAM (and an Icom CI-V
interface, a Kenwood TS-2000, a home-brew CW interface, an M2 rotator
controller, an SCS PTC-Iie, and a KPC-3):

version: http://www.vscom.de/produkte/vscom_usb-4com.html /

When you start looking at rig control and logging applications, take a look
at DXLab, which is free: www.qsl.net/dxlab .

I am buying a new PC for the shack. All new systems seem to have  only one 
serial port. Ideally, I would like to have three. One to connect the  MP, a 
second port for KAM (DX PacketCluster), and a third port for a dial-up
modem for 
faxing. I have a Quadra amp attached to the MP and love the automatic  band 
switching from the PC logging program (HyperLog). I also plan to upgrade to
a 
better rig control and logging program (not sure which one yet). Can I
connect  
my MP (and for that matter the KAM) via a serial to USB adapter or are
there 
issues? Thanks.
