I second this - I run my soundcard digital input gain on 0dB, and have adjusted 
the _analog_ pot on my adapter to satisfy all my other programs. WSJT-X sees 
about 63dB all the time, but it decodes well.

I think you'll find you can set your audio level to give 50-60dB on the WSJT-X 
meter and other software will work just fine and you'll never have to adjust 
audio.
WSJT-X wants 30dB minimum but higher values work just fine in the vast majority 
of cases.
Not that the meter value is about 10dB below peak values so 50dB actually gives 
you about 30dB of head room and not 40dB as one would suspect.

And messing with the mic levels is doing the wrong thing...you want 0dB on that 
regardless of what software you are running.

Subject: Re: [wsjt-devel] Little request - 1.7.1 gain slider

If that slider could be mapped to act like a mic volume control to adjust the 
incoming audio up or down similar to the "pwr" slider on the opposite side 
adjusts the outgoing audio volume that would do the trick

73 and thanks for responding!
