Guy, Thanks for the advice this is what I will do. Please remind me, I know XP wont allocate the standard IO ranges (278 & 378) how do I address the LPT port so it talks to your band decoder?? It was to do with the portmap file in the save directory of DX4WIN. I had to convert an address and edit this file by notepad, to which ever of the three LPT ports which was allocated to the band decoder.
I did this ages ago but cannot remember the exact system. Pablo in his ARSWIN software now allows a direct IO entry range. So this one is no problem at all. Thanks in advance 73's de Tony G8DQZ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of ON4AOI Sent: 30 October 2006 16:37 To: 'Tony Lord' Cc: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Dx4win] USB-Parallel adaptors Tony, buy a PCI 2 LPT expansion board don't now any USB to LPT that works with all I/O BTW Vista isn't supporting LPT or Serial only USB 73 Guy ON4AOI BAND DECODER and related stuff at http://www.on4aoi.be/banddecoder.htm DX4WIN soft and related stuff at http://www.on4aoi.be/dx4win.htm DX4WIN, WRITELOG, WF1B & RITTY CW & RTTY interfaces at http://www.on4aoi.be/keyer.htm ARSWIN link and related stuff at http://www.on4aoi.be/web7.htm DXTELNET soft and related stuff at http://www.on4aoi.be/dxt.htm -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tony Lord Sent: Monday, October 30, 2006 4:44 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Dx4win] USB-Parallel adaptors Dear All, Has any one had any experience of using USB parallel adaptors?
