COM27 is also a suspicously(sp) high port#.

That seems to be quite normal for usb adapters. However you are right
that this is the cause of the problem.
Quote from msdn:

I've NEVER seen it higher than 9 and even then it was because there were 9 actual serial ports connected to the system (FTDI USB serial dongles).

To specify a COM port number greater than 9, use the following syntax:
"\\.\COM10". This syntax works for all port numbers and hardware that
allows COM port numbers to be specified.

Now THAT is something I didn't know - or likely just forgot.

I've updated the protocol and command line option sections of the wiki nothing this. Thanks!
