I note that someone's reverse engineered the BR24 protocol.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/openbr24/

Would love to see MacENC support this - to the extent that I'd contribute some code or even $. Anyone else interested in this?

Hi, I'am very interested to hear if macENC as any plans to incorporate radar images and functionality. OpenCPN has already a plugIn for the BR24 and Garmin Radar. Please let us know....

Does the plug-in work for Mac OS X?

its written in java. The connection is over ethernet udp Protocoll. seems to be easy to implement.
The documentation is clear see under http://www.cci.dmu.ac.uk/administrator/components/com_jresearch/assets/publications/1326903964.pdf
This should be helpful. If you need more information just tell me. May be i can help....
By the way I'am working on a logbook for MacENC on iPad.
Thank you you for your great software. I used it non stop since 4 years with no problems or crash. Impressive.
