cocoaModem and Mac OS 10.11.2

[Bill Frantz]

I am trying to get my world back together after buying a new
MacBook Pro which involved upgrading to OS 10.11.2. The good
news is the the K3 and P3 utilities seems to work, so I'll take
the KX3/PX3 etc. ones on faith.

The bad news is that cocoaModem running PSK dosen't show any
signals in the waterfall. Table View does decode a number of
signals and you can move one to a VFO by clicking on it as
normal. Output seems to work, and I was able to make a QSO, but
no waterfall is a significant problem.

fldigi seems to work, although I haven't given it a through
workout yet.

Does anyone know if there is a version of cocoaModem newer that
2.0 or that works on 10.11.2?

Thanks Bill AE6JV

No, I've not tried it on my Macs, Bill. Have you
tried fldigi as an alternative:

I like it, Mac or PC.

I have fldigi on my machine and it seems to work with MacOS
10.11.2. I admit to being old and set in my ways. I learned on
cocoaModem and am used to it. The features I like the best are
being able to decode the past in the waterfall, and dual RTTY. I
just made a RTTY contact with HH2/N5JR using the dual RTTY
function. Although the waterfalls and the two tuning meters did
not show any signals, I was able to tune the DX with the K3
tuning meter and tune the pileup with my ear on the subreceiver.
cocoaModem decoded both DS and pileup.
