[1000mp] Drive From Packet Plug

[Bob Main]

Done all that Tom, but I can't seem to get enough drive from the Packet DIN
jack to do CW or RTTY and barely enough for PSK.  The very strong signals in
the waterfall, S9 and higher, give me a blue line, that's it.  Weaker
signals a barely there at all.  If I use the microphone next to the speaker
I get green/yellow lines indicating strong signals.
