Does anyone know where I can find an input/output card which has a serial port and a parallel port. I am wanting this to program my radios for my repeater. I need the com port or serial port more than anything else. If anyone has one or knows where to get these please let me know.
This implies you want to install this card in a PC type of computer? Or do you mean a laptop? If a PC then you can purchase these cards relatively cheaply. Ask at a computer store. This does not include your favourite chain store such as Futureshop, Best Buy or whatever else is a large box electronic retailer in your country.
Or indeed there might be some ports available on your motherboard that aren't hooked up to the case. Take a look at the manual that might've come with your motherboard.
It a laptop then you need a USB to Serial converter cable. Now those might be available at your favourite chain store.
