Try this, USB to RS-232 converter. I don't even think you have to worry 
about interrupts, since it works like the standard, hot pluggable USB, 
but is power isolated at the 232 end so the equipment won't draw any 
power from the source. I haven't tried it yet, but I am going to, I am 
OUT of COM ports as it is. I am running a TNC switched between that and 
a sound card interface from one, and the other is for CAT control of my 
Icom.
