I tried COM1 (my mouse port), and it worked great.  It makes it 
awkward because I can't use the mouse at the same time.  I'll try 
installing another serial card that I have and see if COM3 or COM4 
works.

COM2 works fine with the Metrowerks PSComUtil, so there is something
different about siocons.  Unfortunately PSComUtil doesn't run the
auto scripts that come with Yaroze programs.

Thanks for the quick response.
