[Elecraft] K3S Computer Audio Question with Sub RX installed

[Bill Frantz]

Thanks Richard. I had not thought of running two copies, as that 
is an "unnatural act" for a Mac. The Mac will do it, but it 
takes two copies of the program (so the Mac thinks they are 
different programs).

Running two copies also solves the problem of wanting to operate 
JT modes while copying a W1AW RTTY builtin on an different band.
