I'm looking for a USB-to-serial adapter that will work with the W5XD+ keyer.
I have a ByteRunner 8-port USB-to-serial adapter, but it changes the
handshaking signals too slowly. The CW works fine, but there's too much
delay in the R1/R2 switching. It's not usable for SO2R switching and I have
to use the motherboard port for the keyer. I may be moving to a MAC and
running Writelog under Windows under VMWare, and the MAC doesn't support
regular serial ports. Has anyone found a single-port USB-to-serial adapter
that will work properly with the W5XD+ keyer?
