============
One way this can happen is if RF is getting into the computer and hosing
the serial port driver. This can happen even with a couple of watts from a
WSPR transmission. The fact that WSPR transmissions go on for 2 minutes can
defeat the operating system's attempts to reset the port buffer. If that's
it, the remedy is the same as for other RFI problems: a good single-point
ground setup and some ferrites.
