I only run Linux and Mac, so no RT Systems for me. Plus I did ask if anything was being planned, at least for the mac, and I got a terse "no".

VirtualBox might be an option, but then I'll have to buy a copy of windows. Ehhh, no.

My father-in-law had an extra license for Windows 7 so I do have that installed in VirtualBox for the rare occasion I HAVE to use Windows but I agree for the most part. It looks like I missed part of this thread but is it just cable issues?

I use this cable with my Yaesu FT-450D for CAT without issue while I couldn't get the nice FTDI based one to work.

As long as it's not a clone (and maybe if it does) it works very well with Linux. The cable I have for my old Wouxun HT is also PL2303 based as is the programming cable for my Alinco mobile.

Thanks,
