Headphones do not produce sound. Have done all tests with speakers and
drivers etc but never was able to get sound to work. I am currently using
an external USB sound card but I really need to free up. Honestly I have
done all I can. I need someone who could investigate. I can take it to the
computer repair shop and pay $50 to $100 to get it fixed or I can buy a
refurbished dell 660 Inspiron for $150 to $200 but then you have the issue
of copying everything from one computer to the other and having to redo
tqsl and lotw etc so I think my best option might be the repair, I have run
at least a dozen troubleshooting tests. I am not experienced enough to work
on testing a sound card that is embedded in the mother board. The other
issue is that the dxpeditions are running Fox and hound mode and it
requires a cat cable. I have one but can’t use with an external sound card
plugged into the USB port. So basically it means unless I get the internal
sound to work I will not be able to work any dx stations on ft8 and jt65
without being able to use that cat cable. That’s about it thanks
