EchoMac

EchoMac is a program originally written by Steven Palm, N9YTY, to provide Macintosh OS X access to the EchoLink network for amateur radio VoIP. It builds a Cocoa GUI around the echoLinux backend. I am the current maintainer. Support questions not answered by the Help files are best addressed to the echomac-users mailing list.

The latest released and test versions, as well as complete source code, are always available from the SourceForge project page and SVN system.
