I have been using a 7 port hub for over a year and have continuous problems with ports being unavailable when I change apps (e.g. switch transceivers or go from wsjtx to js8 call). ?This happens with or without VSPE. Windows10 ?issue or ? Hub issue?
I wonder if instead of using an external hub there are better results with a USB expansion card powered by the PC? I have a usb 3.0 2-port card that seems to be reliable. ?Maybe adding several 3 or 4 port cards would be a more reliable choice?
