Thanks Gord

Give me a bit of time to play with it and I'll come back.

Hi Bob:I would certainly say give it a try.  The problems I'm having seemed to be strictly with me.  I didn't get as far as trying an RF test as I was having more issues with getting the program to start properly and an issue with incoming emails.  Please do give it a try and let me know how you make out.Gord

Hi Gord,

This is Bob, W3HXW, and I've been reading your posts along with Dan's as you work at trying to get D-Rats working with an iMac and OSX.

I have an iMac and also a laptop with Windows with D-Rats on it.

Have you two been sufficiently successful at mating D-Rats with OSX so that you'd recommend my downloading D-Rats and using it to run my transceiver on 2 meters or would you recommend simply staying with Windows?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts,

Bob

Hi Dan:
I was originally using the File>Quit.  I appreciate you have spent a lot of time on this with me in
mind, since I don't see others posting with the same issues.
For the time being I have a windows laptop that DRATS is working fine on so why don't we call it
a day.  I prefer to use my mac desktop, but it's no big deal if I have to use my laptop, just not
quit as convient.
Thanks for the efforts, it was very appreciated.
