I don't know how many Mac-Ham enthusiasts who would like to operate WSJT have put it off due to the uncertainty of whether it would work on Boot Camp or not, but it does. I had 2 QSOs this morning.
I installed Windows XP professional (shudder) with Boot Camp. That went smoothly, but it is a bit weird to see that WIndows logo come up. I downloaded WSJT and started it right up. I am using a Griffin iMic as the sound input device. I followed the directions in the WSJT documentation and things went smoothly. A local walked me through a JT6M QSO and a FSK441 QSO, both of which went without event. The rig is a TS2000X.
Other than the investment in Windows XP, which is not small, it was relatively painless.
I am going to use this during my rove in the upcoming VHF contest. Wish me luck. - Duffey
