[DXBase] Rotators and DXbase

Entire USB dedicated?????

Connect an eight or four port USB hub to one of the computer's USB
ports. If the usb device is designed correctly it's a don't
care......Kill Serial Ports....Time has come for them to fade away into
the archives.....

Bill,

Maybe I'm being dumb about this, but is anyone really gonna tie up a USB
port just to turn a rotator?  I would think a person would want a USB to
Serial hub and then only have to use one serial port off the USB and
have the others available.  I can't see an entire USB dedicated to just
a rotor.
