Digital radio adapter
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I plugged the adapter into my laptop, which immediately recognized the adapter, installed it, and assigned a COM port. I use the adapter to connect my Windows 10 pc to my amateur radio, for transmission of digital signals (similar to radio teletype). No problems, works as expected.
