It can also help calibrate a sound card to a time signal and do frequency measurement tests. Fldigi is a modem program for most of the digital modes used by radio amateurs today: CW, PSK, MFSK, RTTY, Hell, DominoEX, Olivia, and MT63-2KL are all supported, among many others. Fldigi, along with the rest of the FL suite, works identically on both Windows and Mac platforms.

My program of choice for most digital modes is Fldigi, and now that I am on a Mac, there is no change to that preference. As I will discuss later, there is also an iOS version of this software that you can move through seamlessly from one to another. The features offered are extremely comprehensive and are updated regularly. I have not had a need for any customer support, but the many good reviews assure me that customer service from this company is also top notch. If you are a Mac user, I highly recommend this software.

When I bought my Mac, I came across a program called MacLoggerDX. I was able to export an ADIF file and import it into multiple online logging programs like LoTW and ClubLog.

I had a logbook on QRZ and that seemed enough to me. I actually didn’t have a standalone logging program when I had Windows. I’ll also show you some good ham radio software for Mac and/or Apple. For the most part, I have been extremely happy with not many limitations, but there is a notorious one that I will cover below. That was a big choice to consider when I decided to change from mostly Apple/Mac to nothing but Apple/Mac.

There is no denying that most ham radio software was written only for Windows Operating Systems. I could write articles for days arguing the benefits and, yes, downfalls of that choice, but I’ll stick to the ham radio aspects since that’s what this blog is about. For better or for worse, I am an all-Mac and Apple user.
