[TenTec] USB -> RS232

Has anyone had any luck using a USB -> RS232 converter to control a Pegasus? I've tried both the TT software and N4PY and they refuse to establish communications with the Pegasus. If I reconfigure them to use a 'real' COM port, all works FB.

I've tried connecting the USB -> RS232 converter both to the USB port on the computer directly and through an externally powered 4 port hub.

The particular converter is a GoldX GXUSB-1200 and I've tried two different units with the same results.

I also tried hooking up my Rascal computer -> PTT interface to see if the GoldX converters could control that and that does seem to work. They can control PTT using either RTS or DTR lines.
