Hi Dave,
Sorry for all these Mac issues but we are slowly getting there. I have 
put a fix in for this now where a
Shift click or Shift drag will select like the control click.

As a work around:
The  version you are running supports shift-click and shift-drag but it 
clears out any currently selected
stations. So, of you can shift drag a region and select the stations you 
want in one fell swoop then this should work.
The new version (out this week!) does not clear out what is already 
selected.
