[LOGic] Com port locks up still

[Mel Martin]

 >defeats the purpose of the MK

Not completely... but it was just to confirm that it is a issue with the 
USB COM port.

I'll have to get on... but things haven't been going so well here... 
just before Christmas, the power supply in my IC781 died... and I've had 
terrible service from Icom in Canada in the past... and none of the US 
outfits wants to fix it... and yesterday my Alpha 87A started giving 
problems... so I'm down to my barefoot 746Pro ;-)
