I need a USB to serial adapter which will work for a powerperfect SMT6 and a zeitronix wideband. I heard that some have connection problems and some dont work so if anyone has one that works or knows where I can get one locally prefered let me know.

from what i have seen, the one at radioshack is the only one that works well with XP. i use them a lot to connect to machines at work and have gone through like 5 of them, and this works the best.
