Randy,

Take a look at the K1EL wed site (don't have the URL handy). His 
keyer/keyboard interface is supposed to  be quite good, eliminating 
the need for keying from your Mac, while possibly still being able to 
control the Orion.

I think the good PSK programs, such as DigiPan2, MIXw, and the others 
are all PC based. DigiPan 2.0 seems to be very good, but may not be 
functional on a Mac.
