Matt, Got a note from Art/KA9ZAP and he suggested that I check the NaP3 Config box labeled "DC Block". I did, and that resolved this issue.

Anyway, the problem is fixed, at last!!! :-) 73, Jim / W6JHB On Monday, Feb 17, 2014, at Monday, 9:57 AM, Matt Zilmer wrote: > OK, Jim. RX ISO *should not* have helped, but what the heck.
