Stan Unfortunately that input on the rear is "hot" all of the time and the signal (noise) is mixed with mike audio. It is isolated by a 10k ohm resistor. The MIC gain and SP level controls both input

Even with that  approach, any noise coming out of the computer sound card output stage will be sent to the input of the Omni VI.   This will occur even when the audio gain of the computer is reduced

I've found typically the mike gain runs 9 o'clock to 10 o'clock on these radios.   Yes the 707 has much lower output and will require one to raise the gain a considerable amount.   My 707 sits on the

Check the 2 pin Molex connector on the radio.  With multiple insertions and the current draw, the tin contacts are noted to heat and loosen and thus not make good contact with the cable contacts.   L

Oh yes, for AM 60 watts would be excessive, based on my experience. The Centurion has about 10 dB gain (+ a bit depending on band). Thus 60 watts in would produce 600 out. At 600 watts, AM carrier mo
