If you want to let multiple programs access the same serial port, this can be done with software like LP-PAN. But there's no addressing in serial port comms, so PC pull works better than device push. When a client of LP-PAN polls, LP-PAN can forward the reply to this client. When the K3 broadcasts, LP-PAN can either suppress the message or forward it to all clients and hope they don't get confused. 73 Jon LA4RT > > 73, Mike NF4L > > On 7/19/2010 11:16 PM, David F.
