[chirp_users] Chirp, Mac, and Yaesu Ft-60R

[David Evans]

Frank, I, too, have an old Mac and I took off the Apple OS off of it and
replaced it with Ubuntu Linux and all my troubles went away.  Performance
is better, too.   No drivers needed.
Of course, that may not work for you if you need Mac programs so your
mileage may vary.

Thanks,
David,
