Progress so far:  Can receive PSK31 pretty good.  With Chris's help 
have worked around the problem of editing the MACROX.TXT file with 
TextEdit (can't do it - need a ASCII text editor).

I am now trying to TX and I have been having a small problem with 
trying to determine when it ix TX'ing my message.  I am using 
SignaLink SL 1+  and when the headphone is plugged into the SL 1 the 
sound cuts off when it is TX'ing and stays off until I put t he 
program back into RX.

I can plug the headphone into the Apple G5 and I can hear the 
difference between when the message is being sent and when it is just 
in TX.  I can see the  signal spike on the display on the Icom 
756ProII and I see power on the meter so I guess I can assume that 
the signal is going out?

However, I like to type ahead while receiving a message so that I can 
TX as soon as the RX is over.  (1) if a do this while RX is coming in 
the red letters are interspersed with the black letters I am 
receiving. (a) If after the message is received I then go to TX will 
it send the message I have typed???  (b) is there any way to block up 
the TX message in a separate window as I type it so that it is not 
all mixed up with that being received???
