It seems to basically work through LP-Bridge if I turn on the "AI2"
option for the virtual com port. YPlog is configured for Kenwood at
38400, 1 stop bit. You may be able to get it to work without LP-Bridge
in the middle if you can find a way to get it to send "AI2;" after
connecting.. otherwise use LP-Bridge...
