Well yes thats what I've done now although in the UK of course its a little more than $20

But it would be nice to understand the problem fully.
I surmise that normally the RTS pin on the serial port is kept high keeping the IR tower enabled and this is lost through the converter so it shuts down again.

I was just hoping that some one with electronics know how or programming skills would offer a simple solution.

But thanks for your replies...
