The point I was making is that the RS-422 port can be strapped to  
work with RS-232 devices including hardware handshake devices, the  
RS-232C port CANNOT be used with RS-422 devices.

If you are interested in keying your rig with the DTR and RTS lines  
and eliminating level shifters the microHAM device is a much better  
all round choice...

I have all of them in the lab and they all work great with the more  
than 60 radios that MacLoggerDX supports.
