For those of you worried about obsolescence, as fewer and fewer new 
computers include an LPT port, Piexx (www.piexx.com) makes a port 
translator that connects to a USB port and provides all of the standard 
SO2R control signals, 2-radio band data, and a radio control COM port.  The 
SO2RXlat will work with any logger that supports the MicroHam control 
protocol, a list that includes N1MM and, I believe, Writelog, as well as 
Win-Test.  The unit is reviewed in my NCJ "Software for Contesters" column 
in the May/June 2008 issue.

For the record, I worked with Chris at Piexx as he developed the product, 
but I have no financial interest - I'm just a cheerleader.

73, Pete N4ZR
