Tom,

Sorry you are having so much trouble.
There is likely something that you are not relating to us because you have not discovered it yet.

Do you have the KX2 set to DATA A mode? PSK D and FSK D do not respond to audio input.

Do you have the jumpers in the SignaLink set correctly? See the SignaLink software CD or contact their Technical Support folks.

Are you still using the Signalink or did you switch to an external USB soundcard. If the Signalink, set the TX gain control on it to about mid-scale and try again. There is a setting for the soundcard output level for the Signalink in your computer as well.

Do you have an audio amplifier of some sort? Like an amp for an MP3 Player? or amplified computer speakers? or headphones? If so, connect it to the Signalink rear panel "Monitor" jack to see if you hear audio. If no audio there, you will have to work with the Signalink and computer until you obtain audio. Remember that the Signalink is a one channel soundcard - only the left channel will have audio. Once you have audio out of the SignaLink, you should be able to obtain an indication on the ALC meter. But take things one step at a time.

You might simplify the problem by switching to a plain USB external soundcard.

If your KX2 works with a microphone, I the KX2 should also work with audio from the soundcard.

73,

Then use your digital mode software to do a transmit.
Look at the KX2 ALC meter - you need to adjust the audio levels so you have 4 bars solid on the ALC meter with the 5th bar flickering.

While in transmit there is NO SIGNAL leaving the radio. NO power bars show. Turning the mic gain does nothing.
