Please forgive me for a slightly off-topic post but I know that the collective wisdom of the people on this list can give me a lot of good advice.
My shack computer is getting a little "long in the tooth" and I am starting to research a replacement machine. My current ham usage for the computer consists of logging and some digital work, but future rig control could be something that I would be interested in doing. Recent experience with a new iPad has created a very positive impression for me regarding Apple products but I know that "in the old days" most ham radio software was designed for Windows only. So my question is this - Are there now good choices available for ham radio software (logging, digital, rig control) that will run on OSx computers? BTW, I know that Linux is a popular operating system for ham radio these days but I don't really know anything about it. I can certainly try to learn, however the computer has other uses in the family and so I would need to be able to easily switch it back into it's "standard" manufacturers configuration for my wife who is even less techie than I am. Any and all opinions would be appreciated. 73, Paul - N8XMS ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
