Have you checked the "LINE OUT" cables - make sure the LINE OUT
plug on the DB37-EL-K## cable assemblies are properly connected to
the LINE OUT jacks of *both* transceivers.  Then make sure that
CONFIG:LIN OUT = nor 020 for *BOTH* transceivers.

WYH uses audio from the transceiver headphone jack ("What you hear")
while the recording/digital decoders use LINE LEVEL (constant -
pre-volume control) audio.  If you are not getting audio for the
normal Recording/Digital settings it is likely that you do not have
audio connected correctly!

73,
