Rick,

Is you fldigi rig control working?  Dave cannot test because his Mac mini is a 2009 and it has to be a 2010 or newer to us macOS.

The bad news is I could not get rig control to “Initialize" and as result fldigi could not display the frequency of my TS-590SG.  The same version of fldigi works fine with Mac OS 10.11.5.
