Hi Bob,

I am running OS 10.2.8 with the Heath version of PK232.  I use the 
Keyspan serial adapter as well but into the Kevin Kreuger version of 
MacRatt III, obviously in classic.  This all goes to my TEN-TEC OMNI V. 
  It runs flawlessly, but it does not have PSK31.  Those PSK apps I have 
seen leave me cold so I will not work PSK31, the flavor of the week in 
the digital world.

I am searching for a heavy duty grade Contest program for the Mac to 
replace my Marathon by Kevin Krueger.  It works but it  is missing the 
3 newest ARRL sections and a few DXCC countries/prefixes in its data 
base.
