Hi Dave, If there are already 8 comports on your computer then I suggest You connect your rig to one below 8. But mu guess is that your computer gave this number randomly Go in your Windows/SYSTEM/hardware/ports and change the comport NR to a number Below 8 that is not used.

The rig is connected to the computer via a comm port-> USB adapter. The computer's Device Manager says the adapter is working properly as COM9. The problem is that DX4WIN only goes up to Comm8. Any ideas would be appreciated! Thanks. Dave, W2PK _______________________________________________ Dx4win mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win
