<br>
I have a 4 comport FDTI device which runs from a single USB
connection. It sets up 4 different COM ports on installation.<br>
<br>
Mine came for the Golden Dragon market in Hong Kong but I'm sure
you would find them on eBay etc<br>
<br>
Works fine on W10 unlike some other types<br>

Thanks a lot Bob for the quick response.<br>
I'll go with the 3 USB2serial 'coz the Folio 1040<br>
does not have even the chance to have real LPT.<br>
<br>
Thanks once again.<br>

<br>
I've just started to play with the idea to scratch a
so2r box using LPT.<br>
I have USB to LPT converter as the laptop has USB ports
only.<br>
<br>
Active radio A/B, CW/PTT control is OK.<br>
Pin 4 takes care of switching between the RX A/B but<br>
how can I choose for the R1R2 stereo in the same time?<br>
I see pin 5/9 is responsible for stereo but how this
works?<br>
<br>
I read through the wiki several times but it's still not
clear.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance.<br>
