[Dx4win] DX4Win and USB Ports

[Dave Hawes]

Hi Byron!

I use a ByteRunner USB2-4COM-M to create 4 real COM ports from one 
USB port.

I use the ByteRunner to control my radio, rotator, and power meter, with one 
port left over for whatever.

The ByteRunner uses the FTDI chipset, and is fully functional for just about 
anything.  So, if you are happy with your peripherals, but are lacking COM 
ports as I was, the USB2-4COM-M is a reasonable solution.
