Bob,
Think it was a simple matter of not adjusting the front panel MIC gain 
up when I went to Line-In setting. That's working, but the hassle continues.

Yes, I've got the latest 1.58, 1.48. At the moment I'm doing USB rather 
than data mode. I tried your suggestion for data mode with dataA, and it 
works the same also.

I was going to use VOX instead of a physical PTT, but that doesn't work 
well. I've adjusted gains but it insists on cycling on & off. Thought 
anti-VOX would fix, but it doesn't.

So I tried manual PTT with front panel button to transmit ... getting 
feedback somehow when I put the mic gain up to about 4 for even just 1 
bar ALC. Have power set to 5 watts.

Alan
