Tony:

You mention FSK,  the MixW program provides AFSK and not a FSK signal 
although it says RTTY.  For AFSK the Orion should be in USB mode.  Check the 
value of the Line/Aux Gain as it may be 0 or too low.  Raise the Line/Aux 
gain to a mid way value to start.   Also the Windows Mixer will adjust the 
audio level going to the radio.

>From MixW drop down menu select Configure and then  Output volume.  This 
brings up the Windows Mixer.  The two sliders marked Volume Control and Wave 
are the controls for the audio out of the computer.   I normally run mine 
about mid range and then adjust the Wave slider for some 30 to 40 watts of 
data power output.  The Orion should be set to 100 watts power and the 
Speech Processor should be off.
