Hi Bob,

Not a mac mini but an iMac Intel with Keyspan 4-port serial adaptor  
to a KPC 3+.

Use several programs depending on mood. :-)
MacLoggerDX has a TNC window and works well.

MacTNC works for me as well.  Maybe you need to install driver for  
the serial to USB adaptor?

Which Mac Mini?  Which USB to serial adaptor?
