My Yaesu FT1000MP works fine with MacLoggerDX (up until this problem 
with the Keyspan adapter, but that's not the fault of the radio).

I also use a Griffin iMic to bring sound from the Yaesu to my 
PowerBook. The line out on the Yaesu works just fine for recording 
sound off the air.

Looking at the rig setup list in MacLoggerDX preferences, I see 7 
Kenwood models, 2 AOR models, 12 Icom models and 5 Yaesu models. In 
addition, there is a JRC model, an Elecraft K102 (even though it's 
spelled wrong...:-)), Drake R8B, TenTec Jupiter and even Racal 6790GM.

In terms of this particular piece of software, you have a rather wide 
selection of models from which to choose.

Hope this helps.
