Have you checked "dAtA DT OUT" to confirm that "Main" is selected?
If Sub is selected and the subreceiver turned off, there will be no
output.
Also confirm your "dAtA OUT LVL" settings.
An alternative to fooling with receive audio from the Packet jack
is to use a standard 3.5mm to 3.5mm *stereo* cable between the
FT-2000 "AF OUT" jack and SPKR jack on the Signalink USB. If you
do that, remove the speaker jumper on the header in Signalink
(see pg. 9/10 of the Signalink manual).
