I use VSPE to let my Ftdx-5000, SDR-IQ, DX4WIN and N1MM all share the same virtual com ports at the same time. Easy to set up and free. For Windows.

Acts like a old time 'TSR' program that sits in the background and does its thing like a traffic cop. Works great! 73 Al N9ISN On Wed, 4 Apr 2012 18:56:34 -0600, Jim Reisert AD1C <[email protected]> wrote: >On Wed, Apr 4, 2012 at 6:49 PM, John Sullivan KN8S wrote: > >> Can dx4win work with commander radio control on the same comport? > >DX4WIN has to have exclusive access to COM ports.
