[CQ-Contest] USB Parallel Adapters

As far as I know, pretty much all of the USB to parallel adapters are only
suitable for interfacing to a parallel printer. They do not look or work
like an LPT port.

This is a real annoyance with laptops, as now in addition to no longer
having a serial port, the parallel port is gone also. At least, usable USB
to serial adapters exist.
