[Ham-Mac] JT65-HF/JT-Alert on Mac

[Keith Maton]

I've posted about these before but someone has managed to get WSPR and JT65 all WINEd up and working under OS X already

Scroll down a bit and you'll see two entries, JT65-HF OSX Port and WSPR OSX 2.11 Port

Both work perfectly for me and save faffing about in Parallels or trying to make them work under Crossover.
