I just purchased a TH-D72A. Could someone explain how to find the Virtual Com Port Driver on a computer. Mike N3MRM |

The virtual com port driver is a piece of software you install on your computer, to enable you to connect a USB device to a computer that lacks COM ports. A lot of older software was written for serial ports. http://www.kenwood.com/i/products/info/amateur/vcp_e.html This Kenwood page describes how to install that software. You don't need this software if you are using an older computer with a COM port, or install a serial (COM) port on your new computer. I purchased a serial card for my Windows 7 computer that only cost $10. It works great--I got it to handle the T/R switching when running digital soundcard modes like JT65, PSK31, and RTTY.
