Hi Steve,

Have not tried miniprop but HamCap (which uses VOACAP) from dxatlas.com runs great under the free wine
program and Mavericks. Same with their great dxatlas program. I pretty much just installed wine from
macports, ran the voacap and hamcap installers and it worked, I don't recall any hassles. I then made a
little apple script and assigned it a small screen capture while running hamcap as an icon and it sits
nicely in the doc. Here's my apple script:

do shell script "cd '/Users/ecdowney/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Afreet/Ham CAP'; /opt/local/bin/wine
HamCap.exe"

Let me know if you need specific details.
