[LOGic] 2 RIGS IN LOGIC

[K0DAN]

Wow, very interesting, and "duh", I never noticed/used the second serial 
port on the RigBlaster I have (and rarely use)!

The shack PC doesn't have a 2nd serial port, altho I need to open it up and 
see if there's a 2nd port on the motherboard which I can bring to the back 
of the chassis.

I think the USB-COM adapter is probably the best long term solution (more 
rigs: yay! obsolete COM ports: boo!) but I always like to tchase the 
no-money solution.

Jeez, adding another rig to the shack has spawned all kinds of unitended 
consequences!

Tnx es 73
