You're only using one of the signals, either I or Q and at very low level. I believe you'd get better service with the phones output. Fldigi is only looking at the tip signal Sent from my iPhone ...nr4c. bill > On Dec 2, 2016, at 2:57 PM, John Pitz wrote: > > >

Hi folks A follow up KX-3 4092. Thankyou to the off-list emails and advice. It's not looking flash. Suspect the fault is a low level issue on the early 12volt lines or one of the dc-dc converters. At this stage it's a non-viable repair here so will put it on the "will take another look later

Kev, I tried that very early on and found that the signal amplitude was really not adequate for my tastes - but it did work. So I guess it all depends on your soundcard and its gain. Fldigi and other similar applications only use the left channel. A panadapter application will use both.
