[chirp_users] CHIRP and Mac High Sierra

[Chuck Hast]

That is exactly what I do, I run Linux and when I need some irritating app
that
is Windows only I run Windows in a VM, I use VMWare for it but VB will work
just fine too. In a VM it is a lot easier to go in and pick through the
poop and
figure out why Windows died.

I do not have a Mac but I know a few who do who also run Chirp, it runs
great
on those machines as far as I can see.

One other advantage as I can see is Linux does not appear to pay attention
to
the USB chip issue, I have tried all kinds of them legit and knock off, and
have
had no issues with them. I use Ubuntu Mate 16.04.

My only issue is I wish that someone would work on getting Chirp to talk to
the
Icom ID-5100. I will even loan my radio if someone would take a look at it.

My hats off to you guys great piece of software and I am sure it will get
even
better over the next year. Kind of like good wine, the longer it ages the
better
it gets.
