I'm trying to use KC8UNJ's VX-7 Commander from Parallels, using a  
Keyspan USA-19HS USB-serial converter.  I have previously used the  
same cable, radio, and software on a Dell PC with a fixed serial  
port.  I have Parallels set up with SerialClient (http://eudyptes.com/ 
SerialClient.php) using these instructions:

To do this, I have to hardcode the comm parameters (buad, etc) in  
SerialClient.  I did this successfully with some BuTel scaner  
programming software, but I can set the baud rate explicitly in that  
software.  There is no provision in VX-7 Commander to set the baud  
rate.  So far all I've been able to get is timeout errors with this  
radio.

Has anyone else used this configuration?  Or do you have a suggestion  
for the baud rate to use?
