Downloaded, tweaked, installed, running.   Cool.   Not sure
I am ready for the excitement of 16 byte qso's but I watched
a lot of activity on 20m.  Oh, I am using a Mac Mini.

Excellent work!  The installation is a bit geeky and you can
get into trouble if other installs have messed with sysctl.conf
(PGP did).   You have to read the fine print in the Manual to
configure a USB based serial port (for Rig Control).  Signalink
simplifies installation quite a bit.

Good Job!!
