[CQ-Contest] Serial port question

[Oliver Dröse]

How will that help him to share the COM port amongst different applications 
wanting to access the Yaesu's serial port?

@Ken:
You might want to google for "serial port splitter", there are a few 
applications available doing exactly this. Not sure they work perfect, last 
time I tried it myself there where some conflicts but that has been years 
ago now so things have probably changed a bit. ;-)
