Several years ago I purchased the KeySpan USB/Serial adapter. I have had absolutely no problem with it on WinXP, WinVista and Win7 (both 32&64 bit). If you are using a laptop or change equipment around it is a must. The driver can be setup so that the individual converter will always have the same serial port, regardless of which usb jack you plug it into. How many times have you spent an hour or so trying to figure out what is wrong when al it was is you put the plug into a different jack? I now have two of these and one is set up as com port 3 and the other as 4. Has made my life much simpler.
KeySpan model USA 19 HS under $30 on the web. As they said LOAD the driver first for your operating system. You will need to go to KeySpan to get it if you get an older version of SW. DO NOT let windows try and find it or allow windows update to "update" it. I did once and it quit working untill I rolled it back. -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K3-Windows-7-and-USB-serial-redux-tp5992292p5994207.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
