Going digital with K2?

jrb-3
Bekir - My message about using HRD with my K2/100 is just before  
yours on the reflector. I too am a Mac-only user.

I happened to have a laptop PC around which I never used, but finally  
dug it out and downloaded HRD. It works wonderfully, but that's not  
the purpose of this eMail.

There is a ham program for the Mac called MacloggerDX which is  
supposed to be superb. Take a look at it and see if will work with  
your older Macs.

The reason I don't use it is because all my Macs (three of them) are  
dedicated to other uses.

73,

Jeff

MacLoggerDX requires OS 9 or OS X (I don't know if Bekir's Macs are  
compatible with these).  Another approach might be to load the PPC  
version of Linux on the Mac hardware.  Linux has some nice digital  
apps and the combination of gMFSK, hamlib and Xlog works quite well.  
I set up my Mini to dual boot OS X and Ubuntu Linux although I don't  
use it much because the Broadcom wireless chip isn't yet supported in  
the Linux kernel (it's almost there, however).
