Most excellent Scott! Does it look possible to get it working with an  
Intel Mac?

Steve, et. al.,

The short answer is "not right now". I, too, have an Intel-based  
Macintosh
which I use for radio stuff while traveling. Until Silicon Labs  
releases a new
driver (or somebody else develops one) for the Intel Macintosh platform,
we are kind of stuck.

The last driver released from SILABS was in 2004. Our best hope is to
appeal to West Mountain Radio to lean on their vendor (SILABS) to
keep their drivers current. I have written to West Mountain Radio
suggesting just that. I'll give them a couple of days to digest my
suggestions before I follow-up. Hopefully, West Mountain Radio
(who has the most to gain) will try to do the right thing here.

I'll let everybody know of the progress made. Thanks.
