[Elecraft] K3 mac software and digital interfaces

[Joe Subich, W4TV]

If you're using a Mac, look at MacLoggerDX, Aether or RUMLog for
logging and cocoaModem for digital modes.  That suite of software
(cocoaModem works well with either MLDX or RUMLog) functions quite
well with nothing more than an iMic sound card (so Operating system
sounds do not reach the radio) and a basic USB to serial converter.

If you want everything in one box, look at microHAM USB Interface III
(which works as standard USB sound card and serial converter under
OS-X).  While other interfaces provide additional capabilities, the
USB III provides everything needed for the vast majority of Mac
users.

good with a Mac and success/failures others may have had. I do not want
to run the Mac in windows/corporate mode, sorry no more registry or blue
screens of death for me. I am seeking advise from other K3 owners who
have tried programs like Cocomodem for digital modes both directly
through K3 or various usb hardware interfaces such as Microham,
Rigblaster, Tigertonics etc and if the expense and effort is worthwhile
or just connecting the K3 to Mac? I do not need CW keying as I have a
Begali CW machine for that, which works great. This is a bit off topic
so email off list is fine unless you feel your responses would be of
value to others. Thanks
