[Ham-Mac] WSPR

[Lew Phelps K6LMP]

It apparently IS possible to build WSPR to run on OS X, though not easy.  One ham describes how he did it at:

I am going to see if I can replicate this myself today.

The downside is that you need to buy a Windows OS, which is more expensive than a Mac OS and you need to reboot. But in Boot Camp the Mac hardware is running as a PC with no virtualization.
