I hadn't realised the Mac version didn't have it and it explains a few  
questions in my mind when people said here they had done something, I  
misunderstood what was being done, since I didn't realised the Mac was  
missing functionality.

So David, yes please, do implement the same functionality to the  
highest degree possible in all 3 architectures.

Having this facility for all 3 is quite a big cornerstone in the  
Elecraft arsenal and another reason why the K3 is SO GREAT.

And although not a big user of cocoaModem, I'll second that sentiment,  
Chen puts a lot into his software. And being an ex-Apple engineer, you  
can bet it's 100% cocoa and done 'the right way'. You should look at  
some of the other software there too, all good stuff.
