Re: [Elecraft] MIC + Line-In Feedback Noise

2009-03-06 Thread Joe Subich, W4TV

Bud, 

Depending on your soundcard you should be able to turn 
off the monitoring so you don't need to change the  
Line In level.  For example, with the SoundBlaster 
Audigy 2ZS, open the Recording Control (input mixer), 
click the Advanced button on the Analog Mix input and 
select Record without Monitoring.  Some Realtek chips 
include the inputs on the output (speaker) mixer but 
they are generally hidden (select Options | Properties 
and show all of the unchecked controls).  You can unhide 
them and make sure the Line In (it may be shown as a 
color) is muted.

 Hi Joe,
 
 Thanks for the reply.
 
 I discovered late last night that it was caused by the 
 soundcard Line-In slider position.
 
 At first I tried muting Line-In. However, I soon discovered 
 that N1MM would remove the Line-In mute checkbox each time 
 it played a function key Wave file. The only solution is to 
 slide the Line-In slider to the bottom (zero) and forget 
 about the mute checkbox.
 
 Now I need to remember that when going from SSB to RTTY to 
 raise the Line-In slider position.

 If you have a soundcard connected to the K3, it is probable 
 that Monitor is enabled on soundcard Line In which echoes 
 the K3 Line Out back to the K3 Line In.  If you have monitor 
 turned on in the K3 it creates a nice echo chamber.

  Thanks to both Eric K3NA and Rich VE3KI, I now have Line-In working.
 
  That leads to a new related issue:
 
  When MIC + LIN is turned ON I get feedback from somewhere 
 when I key 
  with the foot switch in SSB without saying anything.
  If I turn MIC + LIN to OFF the feedback is gone.
  I closed N1MM just to be sure it wasn't causing a problem. It
  wasn't, the feedback was still there.
 
  Any suggestions?

I am not sure why you have MIC+LIN turned ON, but I suspect you are 
getting noise pickup from the microphone.  Perhaps you have MON turned 
up to hear the outgoing signal and the microphone is near the speaker so 
you get a feedback loop.
