My real job is computers - macs and pc's since 1981..... and in the Ham world, Beta tester for TRX-Manager among others. After lots of trouble with USB-Serial; I have found that the FTDI chip is the solution - they are available easily everywhere - the software is updated by the company; and they work with macs. pc's, and linux boxes.  You can 'tweak' and change com ports easily from the device manager.  YMMV

   When I try to upload new firmware, I seem to get frequent failures during the FPF load. This has happened both with 3.44 and 3.52. The upload fails at different stages of the FPF load each time, seemingly with no consistency or predictability. With repeated tries, the process finally completes and the remainder of the upload goes without a hitch. Am I alone in this, or is this a problem others have seen?
