    "content": "Note that the new FCD Pro+ has a different HID control interface than\nthe previous model, and it's nice that the makers of some of this\nsoftware have updated to support the new model.  I have an ~8.5dB gain\nantenna, intended for use as an APRS I-GATE that I've been experimenting\nwith and thus the de-sense issue I've discovered.\n\nIt is a nice device that performs pretty well.  I also picked up one\nof the cheap DVB-T USB dongles to play with.  While only having an 8-bit\nA/D converter, it has a much wider passband and is also an interesting\ndevice to play around with.  Fun times, lots of interesting work going\non in this space.\n\nlouie\nWA3YMH\n\n\nOn Jan 23, 2013, at 12:07 PM, Robert Morales <[email protected]> wrote:\n\n> I've got one of the original FCDs and it works quite well under Mac OS X\n> 10.8.
