I guess I wasn't too clear on my original posting. For years I have been
using the EQF logging program connected via serial port to my laptop.
When laptop "A" died, I replaced it and had to use USB/serial adapters
to run the radio. So far, so good.
In each instance, the computers had a parallel port on the back and,
using optoisolators, I was able to key the radio from the logging
progran. Very convenient.
Now, laptop "B" is getting squirelly. My latest acquisition has 3 USB
ports and NO parallel port.
What to do? Answers /off the board, please/.
