[Dx4win] support for COM ports above COM8

[Kostas SV1DPI]

I will add that i have not find a way (i believe dx4win doesn't support 
right) to use the ptt of the keyer with my markv. Not big problem on cw as i 
activate the vox, but big one on mmtty where i use another interface just 
for it. By the way writelog does it fine...

In your question now. I believe that if you change this situation inside 
windows you will solve the problem.
Start>control panel>system>device manager>ports
rename com5 to com11 and com11 to com5. Windows will tell you that it is 
problem but i have done it with no problem. If it doesn't work make the 
reverse. I don't think you loose something. My opinion, your risk
