Just change where chirp is attempting to access the radio.

Unless there's a different reason to change the port number. In my experience, changing the USB port that you're plugged into is the only way to change the assignment.

Shows the cable plugged into Com 4.  How do I change it to COM 3?

With the cable attached and radio connected, assuming the proper driver is installed, you would check the device manager snd click on COM ports to see the currently connected serial devices.

The easiest way to call up the device manager is to simply have Win10 search for it by typing "device manages" on the search field on the task bar across the bottom of the screen.
