@ Jay, > Review the MIC CONFIG settings and maybe your TX equalizers settings
Never used them but just looked at the Tx EQ and it is flat @ 0. Mic select is front panel, MIC+LIN is off @ Bill, Mic is an old Heil HM-5 desk mic & the element is an old Heil HC-4. Nothing plugged into the audio jacks except my Bose QC15 headset is in the phone jack. The element only has two connections, I haven't set bias anywhere. Maybe I should experiment with the bias settings but I don't see that in the menu or config options.
