Some random thoughts:

Unless the "contest legal limit" is different from the regular legal limit 
(always a possibility I guess) I haven't had any problems.

How did you determine that the USB-serial converter was damaged by RF and not 
something else?

If you have enough RF in the shack to be blowing up things, you have other 
problems that need solving.

Ok guys....

Everything is grounded....but when you are pushing legal limit power in a 
contest, I have blown up my USB to Serial Converter.  It just doesn't work 
after the RF does its magic to it.  That is why I went to a serial connection.  
So, what have people experienced with their USB Converters when running the big 
amp?
