[TenTec] Line Level audio output of Omni VI+ vs Argo V???

[Bob McGraw - K4TAX]

It just may be that the "low level" input required of the RTTY device is 
actually a "low impedance" input as well, thus loading the line output of 
the Omni VI Plus.  The HP output is really a pretty low Z and thus not 
loaded by the low impedance of the RTTY device.
