Hello all,
I've spent some time trying to figure out voice keying with WriteLog using a
RigBlaster and Kenwood TS-850.  I've recorded my messages, edited them, etc.
I hooked up the dummy load and tried the msg keys.  All seem to work ok.
However, when I sent a msg, I didn't get the drive like I should.  I have
checked my audio properties and they're all adjusted right.  I have had
several Q's on psk, and everything seems to be ok as I get good audio
reports.
The RigBlaster front panel switches are set as follows:
Right and Left Channels:  Both
Auto/Vox:  Auto
Level Adjustment (rear pot) is fully clockwise

Now for the interesting part....when I switch to vox, and the green LED
lights up, I get full drive to the rig.  However, when I use the mic (with
or without processor in-line), I overdrive and get distorted audio.
So, is this safe to assume?  Flip the switch to VOX when sending recorded
messages, and flip back to AUTO when I use the mic?  I would love to hear
from any other WriteLog users who are using RigBlaster. The RigBlaster
manual is a little sketchy and there isn't much help from their website.
Scott, K9JY, mentions it briefly on his website.

TIA and 73,
Terry, WK0F
