Jim,
There is considerable interest in the WSJT programs among Mac-using hams -- the interest has shown up before on this reflector in pleas for a Mac-conversion of those applications.
A question: Did you partition your harddrive, or use a separate harddrive to install Windows and JT6M?
Thanks for posting about WSJT, Rich, KI4FW

> 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 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.
