I used a Radio Shack scanner and tapped the demodulator (MC3359) output to an scope. Used another synthesized radio to calibrate, first on channel (0 Hz difference...hopefully), then 5 kHz up and 5 kHz down. It gives proper reference to baseline and peak to peak deviation. Then modulate the

Hmmm. Well I thought it would be simple enough to transmit digital modes on 2M FM but one issue I just ran in to is the ALC is very high and my usual method of lowering it has no effect. I also lowered the mic gain but that had no impact. Something simple I am not taking in to account when

I would guess, that setting the audio on the low side would be preferable. In the packet days, we used to set out deviation to 3.0 - 3.5 KHz as it assured us of never over deviating. As long as we got at least 10 dB quieting in the rx'er, we experienced fewer retries. philw de ka1gmn On Sun,

Andy, I believe you have a Kenwood TS2K(?). If so, there is a way to control the digital mode audio level on FM. If you're feeding the audio through the microphone connector, menu 41 has a low, medium and high setting. If your using the 13 pin DIN plug, the audio input can be adjusted via menu
