Keith, I have been on unix for the last 30 years, and fought with
cocoModem for about 3 months, and finally came to the conclusion that it
is not ready for prime time. I would get it working for several weeks,
then it would quit..  I never got it to talk to my logging program even
with applescript, finally I moved to fldigi with logging and rig control
coming from rumlogNG and have never looked back... This gives more modes
than cocoModem supports.. 

I use both a signalink, and a small 7 dollar usb sound card depending on
my location (home/portable).  I could use the existing soundcard in the
mac, but just havn't build up a cable for that to work yet.. 

As others have said, you are only concerned about your tone spacing, not
the exact tones, the other end only sees space and mark tones..

feel free to contact me direct if you want to talk about the issues I had..

fwiw... regards.. Fred
