What's the 'correct' way to hook up my Orion to the soundcard for use 
with Writelog, DX4Win and other soundcard modem software?  There seem 
to be lots of 'rear panel'  options for the Orion.
I am using the rear connector for PTT, In and OUT.  Via the RCA connectors in 
the patch cable supplied.  The IN/OUT are fed to a pair of 600 ohm audio 
transformers (from a RASCAL interface kit) to the sound card i/o.  It works great. 
 I switch between MIKE and AUX via the menu.  I set the AUX gain for 65 and 
found a computer audio setting that drove the rig to 100 watts for RTTY.
