[Ham-Mac] OS X contest, TNC software help

[Greg & Kris Palfe]

Thanks for your  comment.  I have tried Keyspan with OS X, but I cannot 
get the PK232 to communicate with anything on OS X.  Marathon and 
MacRratt specifically look for either a named printer or modem port and 
the Keyspan does not answer that issue.  When i try to run either on OS 
X with Keyspan the apps die when they do not find a port.  I have tried 
other TNC software from Steve and I cannot get anything to communicate 
with the PK232.

I think  my best be is to get Virtual PC and run any one of the good 
contest  programs and multimode digital applications.  Mac contesters 
and multimode digital users have always struggled.

thanks for your suggestion,
Greg, wa0bnx
