I'm using a USB to serial converter that works great on Win 98 and XP.
I'm not exactly sure of who makes it, but if you are still looking I can
research it a little.  It has ACC MT609-2 stamped on it. =20
It works great with the RT-TUNER and the romulator.  I'm not sure how it
would work with DataMaster.

	I purchased a new IBM T41 laptop. This machine does not come
with DB9-RS232 ports.

	In order to run TunerCat-RT with the Romulator, I need a RS-232
conector.

	Also I use DataMaster to connect to the ALDL connector, again
with an RS-232 DB9 connector.

	I have tried the Belkin F5U103 USB to Serial DB9 converter. I
works sometimes, but causes continual BLUE-SCREENS-OF-DEATH under
Windows XP.

	I also have tried the new StarTech PCMCIA 2-port serial card.
This card would work with some old legacy serial devices, but not the
Romulator.

	Has anyone got a suggestion for this problem? How about the
QUATECH DSP-100?
