  "Written" is a bad choice of words. :-)

  I "ported" the software, which really meant just figuring out the  
little parts that had to be done differently on the Macintosh than  
for Linux and Windows. 99+% of the code base is the same exact stuff  
that is running on Linux and Windows.

  I would guess that this is an issue in that the wxWidgets  
framework, upon which tQSL is built, needs to be updated and  
recompiled on MacOS X 10.4.

  Has anyone contacted ARRL about this?  After the initial work I  
did, I passed all my changes over to them via Jon Bloom, KE3Z.

  I haven't used the software myself, I just did the initial work on  
it because I know the Mac community wanted to have it available. If  
Jon has problems he can't figure out, I'm sure he will contact me,  
but last I talked he had set up a development system to build the  
newer releases himself.

  Best Regards,

  Steve
