[TowerTalk] FW: Green Heron RT-21 USB Question

[David Branson KC0LL]

I had a bad CPU on a GH I was Beta testing, the USB would not work but serial worked fine. I doubt this is your problem. Mine would reset when I tried to connect with USB. I also got trash in the display on power up some times.

  Hi, Roger. The RT-21 can work either on serial or USB port. I think the
  original Rt-20 is serial-only. 

  Bob, I intend to call Jeff Monday if I can't come up with an answer here.
  Was kinda hoping to be able to stuff all the wires back together this
  weekend, though. The place is a mess right now!

  Is it  designed to run on USB or just serial?
