I have the same issue at the present time also
I have the same Type of computer and looking for the interface for the
radio and the key port.
I have used the one serial port for the TNC which is available.
USB to serial converters seem to be very expensive $75 ++.
Any suggestions ? for the usb port if can be used directly or the Irda port?

Subject: [WriteLog] Any way to interface via USB or IRda
Today, a lot of notebooks are made without an RS232 port.
I'm going to buy a new desktop with only one serial port, two USBs, an IRda
1.1 port, a PS2,
a parallel port and an IEEE1394. There is also an RJ45 for LAN/telephone
line.
I have to interface my radio first, and TNC, TTY.....etc.
Is it possible to use some external interface ? Also, I know there are USB
adapters...but they don't
work in DOS of course.
I believe the solution is to say good-bye (adieu) to DOS software as the
progress goes on, but hope somebody has in mind some circuit to interface
radios and TNC via USBs. Isn't it?
Fabio, IT9GSF.
