[DogParkList] Another Piece of the Puzzle

Scott Anderson has gotten MacLoggerDX running under OS X by swapping 
out his USA-19W for a Keyspan Twin Adapter. It seems that under OS X 
and the current Keyspan driver the USA-19 is clearing the hight bit of 
each(some)  byte(s). This might not show up as a problem on the 
Kenwoods which use 7 bit ascii but it plays havoc with the Icoms which 
rely on an 8 bit data stream. It is not clear if this is happening at 
all sites, but I currently have no reports of USA-19's working under OS 
X and likewise no reports of Twin Serial adapters NOT working under OS 
X.

Thanks for your help Scott in chasing this down.
