Desktop or laptop PC?  The desktop with a PCI parallel/serial port card works 
great.  Dan KI6X

Subject: [Dx4win] Keying a radio with a USB to parallel port adapter

Has anyone had any luck keying a radio using an USB to printer adapter? I just 
purchased a new PC and of course it doesn't have a conventional serial port or 
printer port.  I purchased a USB to Serial adapter and installed it and that 
works great to my Ten Tec Omni VI with DX4WIN V8. I plugged the USB to Printer 
adapter in but it is not showing up on the device manager screen.  The adapter 
is sold under the name of UGREEN.  I would really appreciate some input on this 
idea or must I key the radio using a USB to serial port adapter?

Thank you,

John  (N1JP)
