Which version of Synchronet?

By default the Synchronet Virtual UART driver emulates COM1 (not COM3). But
this is configurable:
https://wiki.synchro.net/config:sbbsexec.ini

However, it'd be better to configure your door game to use COM1. And FOSSIL
(int14h) is generally more performant that COM/UART I/O, if you care about
performance.
