[Dx4win] com bridges

[Kostas SV1DPI]

The bad thing with every com bridge as LPB2 (and many others) is that 
create virtual ports to make it possible. Unfortunately I use a Microham 
product (mk2r+) and the support says that installing virtual coms is not 
a good practice. I have noticed that many virtual coms, slow the 
computer and ask for a new one with a lot of memory, etc. Instead of 
this, omnirig des the job without installin virtual coms. Beside this 
omnirig is open to create your own rigs and that means that someone 
would create a rig file tomorrow to support a new radio without the need 
of an update in dx4win...
