[TenTec] 'serial' cable for OmniVI/VI+

[Clayton Brantley via TenTec]

Allan:  I am using the TenTec USB cable with my Omni VI+ along with CQRlog running under Linux.  Worksgreat!  I had all kinds of problems with Windo$$$, but Linux came up and ran with it.  Didn't have to worryabout drivers or anything else.  Dumped the MS product and installed Unbuntu Linux then added CQRlog.

Allan....
I currently have my OmniVI+ communicating just fine with several programs.
I use an off-the-shelf serial to USB adapter.
