[Dx4win] Expert mode and DX Doubler

[Joe Subich, W4TV]

Dave,

In Windows Device Manager -> Ports (COM & LPT) you associate a Legacy
LPT Port Number (LPT1, LPT2, or LPT3) with your PCIe LPT port (Port
Settings tab for that port).  While N1MM+ uses the port address from the
Resources tab, DX4win uses the Legacy Port Number (LPT1, LPT2, or LPT3)
to identify the LPT port for radio 1/2 signal (Parameters -> CW).

73,

    ... Joe, W4TV
