Howdy, another solution is the new Navigator interface by US Interface
(www.usinterface.com) - I recently bought one of these and it solves all the
USB problems. Only one connection to the computer and the normal connections
to the rig. Works well for me.

Hi Gang,

Just wanted to pass this tip about USB/Serial adapters, the Jupiter and
computers that have only USB ports.

I had a difficult time trying to hook up the Jup with my new Dell (Dimension
E521) because the new computer/s 

now having only USB ports. The reading of the archives helped a great deal
in solving this problem. 

Also they put me in contact with folks who were very helpful. I only wanted
to download the upgrades from

TT and by using a Radio Shack P/N 26-183 cable adapter I was successful. One
of the problems was the finding 

of the "ports/lpt" under device manager. The "ports/LPT" only appears when
the actual USB/Serial adapter in is plugged

in. So if you're trying to change com ports you must load the drivers first
and then have the adapter plugged in to 

see "ports/LPT" under device manager.

I'm not a computer wiz so it gave me as well as Dell supports a problem. I'm
grateful to all that helped from

this reflector and especially Larry WB4WSA. Thank you.
