+Addendum:  Information about sysctl.conf and multiple instances of WSJT-X.

 WSJT-X makes use of a block of memory which is shared between different parts of
 the code.  The normal allocation of shared memory on a Mac is insufficient and this 
 has to be increased.  The sysctl.conf file is used for this purpose.  You can 
 use a Mac editor to examine sysctl.conf.  (Do not use another editor - the file 
-would be probably be corrupted.)
+would probably be corrupted.)

-There are two important parameters that you need to consider.  shmmax determines the
-amount of shared memory that must be allocated for WSJT-X to operate.  This is 14680064 (14MB)
-and this is defined in the sysctl.conf file and should not be changed.  
+It is possible to run two instances of WSJT-X simultaneously.  See "Section 16.2 
+Frequently asked Questions" in the User Guide.  If you wish to run more than two instances
+simultaneously, the sysctl.conf file needs to be modified.  Please email me with your
+requirements and I will provide a replacement sysctl.conf to suit.

-It is possible to run more than one instance of WSJT-X simultaneously.  See 
-"Section 16.2 Frequently asked Questions" in the User Guide.  The second important parameter 
-shmall=17920 determines how many instances are permitted.  This is calculated as: 
-  (shmall x 4096/14680064) = 5.
-The sysctl.conf file is configured to permit up to 5 instances of wsjtx to run simultaneously.
-If this limitation is acceptable then you can continue to install the sysctl.conf file without making any
-alterations.  Otherwise you must edit the file to increase shmall according to this calculation.
- 
+If two instances of WSJT-X are running, it is likely that you might need additional
+audio devices, from two rigs for example.  Visit Audio MIDI Setup and create an Aggregate Device
+which will allow you to specific more than one interface.  I recommend you consult Apple's guide
+on combining multiple audio interfaces which is at https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202000.
