I'm not familiar with the Palm VII, but I'm doing something similar with the
Ir port on the IIIxe, and from what I've been doing you should be able to do
that just fine. 

good luck!

That makes sense. Let me try this from a different approach (to 
accomplish my same goal). Can I have the antenna raised on the Palm VII 
and turn on/off the radio transmitter and then open/close the serial 
port? I'd like to receive a certain piece of data from the serial port 
and then send it over the radio link...it doesn't have to continuously 
send the data from the serial port to the radio transmitter.

Thanks.
