Your question appeared in another topic, so I moved it to this new topic. If someone in the supply chain for the 'tool' adapter is charging that much for shipping, something is not right. Depending on the receiving software, any USB microphone adapter would work. The receiving software must have an audio input option. I use something close to this device https://www.ebay.com/itm/Ugreen-USB-to-3-5mm-Audio-Mic-Adapter-External-Stereo-Splitter-for-Headphone-PS4/153215863655?epid=18024761233&hash=item23ac608b67:g:aD8AAOSwvKBexRXi to feed my GMC200 audio output to Radlog software for the Radmon map. This should also work with DataLogger Pro, with a signal level/sensitivity adjustment in the software.

The receiving software for the Netc.com online map, and possibly other software, requires a COM port (data only) so the 'tool' device is required here if your counter has only an audio output.

GQ also sells the 'tool' device directly; see https://www.gqelectronicsllc.com/comersus/store/comersus_viewItem.asp?idProduct=4544

I should add that I have had issues with the tool and Win10 updates. I regularly have to re-install the driver.
