Richard, a friend of mine, who moved to El Paso ran a Mac, and he used 
WriteLog in Windows emulation mode (is that what it's called???). I know he 
had some way like that, maybe I'm not using the right terms though. That 
being said, I don't know if he ran any hardware with it or not. I know he 
used it on SSB, but I don't know if he had rig control going or not. I'm 
pretty sure he didn't use Rtty.

73, Mike K9MI
