The Lava Quatro 4 port PCI serial card has worked FB for me in an HP box
with Win ME .  I paid $68 + shipping.  The best new is it runs 5 bid baudot
code for me without any problems.

| Rick,
| I had zero luck getting a Multi comma port PCI board to work on my Dell
with

| The internal COM1 is used for CW keying/PK-232/SSTV and the USB port is
| connected to the Rig (TT OMNI-VI+)
