4.0 out of 5 stars Does what its supposed to do..., August 4, 2008

By	S. Horn (Pelham AL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The only issue I had was with the instructions. They are vague (to me anyway) when it came to use of the switch positions' functions. Could be my unfamiliarity with serial communications. And certainly not something that should dissuade purchase.
