A friend and I have almost got the ka9q TCP/IP package up and running
on mthe Rainbow.  However, we need to know a coup[le of things that need
to be included in it's configure file.  These are 1) the comm port
address and 2) the IRQ line number for it (I aren't exactly sure what
the second one means, but thats what it asks for in the docs.)  It says
that on a PC the COM1 port address is 3f8 hex and the IRQ line is number
4, so what are they on the Rainbow?
Thanks in advance,
		James Nugent.
