[Elecraft] [K3] Split RS232?

[Don Wilhelm]

Dave,

That is true, I pointed out that an application *like* LP-Bridge 
provides multiple virtual ports.
I did not intend to say that any particular application would work with 
LP-Bridge.  There are other similar applications, and some *may* work.  
Sorry, but I do not have the details about what works and what doesn't.  
The person with the question might want to do some research knowing that 
there is a possible solution out there - some experimentation may be 
required.

73,
Don W3FPR
