[TenTec] Pegasus USB control

[George, W5YR]

Lee, I don't use a PEgasus or Jupiter, but I do use the Entrega 2U4S port
expander device. It plugs into the computer USB port and expands to two
more USB ports plus 4 sserial ports. Powered by a wall-wart. Has been very
reliabe and easy to install. Computer has COM1 and COM2 with COM2 disabled
in the BIOS. For some weird reason, the modem is installed as COM5. The
Entrega provides COM3, COM4, COM6 and COM7.
