It's not the radio you need to worry about. There is on addressing sent down the serial lead
so the radio doesn't have a clue about what port it is on. The computer end will be limited by 
the software and PC system. Usually Coms 1-4 are OK, but in Windows (and running the right
software) you can use Coms 1-100+ easily. USB serial ports can usually be given coms of any
number you wish in Windows, however these usually don't work in DOS, and  DOS usually only
allows Coms 1-4.

Too many variables to easily answer your question, but I hope this helps?! :)

Rv!
