[Ham-Mac] WSJT-X

[Keith Maton]

Has anyone been able to get CAT control working with a TS-590? 

I couldn't make it work under Windows in a Parallels VM and still can't when using this port.  I've tried both methods, symlinking the file and editing the .ini but it always fails to open the rig.  Other programs (fldigi, Aether) work fine.
